To find the main purpose of a dictionary, you can refer to the introductory section or preface of the dictionary itself. It usually provides information outlining the purpose and function of the dictionary. Additionally, dictionaries are primarily designed to provide definitions and pronunciations of words, making option A - "to provide definitions and pronunciation of words" - the most suitable answer.
To determine the symbol in the dictionary that shows a stressed syllable, you can look for an accent mark. Accent marks are often used to indicate the stressed syllable in dictionary entries. Therefore, the correct answer would be an accent mark.
The pronunciation of a word refers to the correct way to say that word. It includes the specific sounds and syllable stress used when speaking the word aloud. You can find the word's pronunciation in a dictionary entry, typically written using a combination of phonetic symbols or an easy-to-understand guide such as the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA).
To locate the part of speech in a dictionary entry, you can examine the various elements included in the entry. Typically, after the pronunciation, you will find the part of speech information. It may be abbreviated, such as using "n." for noun, "adj." for adjective, "v." for verb, and so on.
In the case of the word "elicit," it comes from the Latin prefix "e-" (meaning "out" or "away") and the Latin root "lacere" (meaning "to entice" or "to allure"). In this way, the word can be broken down into its etymological components, illustrating its origin and development over time.
