THE IMPORTANCE OF LEXICAL MEANS IN LEXICOLOGY

Abstract

This article examines the significance of lexical tools in the study of lexicology, focusing on their functions, applications, and contributions to linguistic research and language learning. The paper analyzes various lexical tools such as dictionaries, thesauri, corpora, concordancers, and digital lexical databases, highlighting their roles in understanding word meaning, usage, semantic relations, and linguistic patterns. Through a review of literature and methodological analysis, the study identifies how lexical tools enhance theoretical and applied lexicology, improve vocabulary acquisition, and support linguistic research. The article concludes with suggestions for optimizing the integration of lexical tools into lexicological studies.
