None of the statements accurately describe the difference between glossaries and dictionaries. A glossary is a list of specialized or technical terms with their definitions, typically found at the end of a book or document, while a dictionary is a comprehensive reference work that contains definitions, pronunciations, etymologies, and examples of how words are used in a language.
Glossaries are different from dictionaries in the following ways:
1. Glossaries contain only the words used in a particular book. This means that glossaries are specific to a particular topic or field, while dictionaries include a wide range of words from various subjects.
2. Glossaries provide definitions for all words. Dictionaries also provide definitions, but they cover a broader range of words and include more comprehensive definitions.
3. Glossaries provide synonyms and antonyms for all words. This is not typically a feature of glossaries, as their main purpose is to define and explain terms used within a specific context or field.
4. Glossaries only contain the pronunciations of words. While dictionaries include pronunciations, they also provide additional information such as etymology, usage examples, and word origins. Glossaries focus mainly on definitions and explanations within a specific context.
