The present article represents a part of a more comprehensive project which entails the proposal for the elaboration of an International Trade Dictionary inside the theoretical framework of the Functional Theory of Lexicography. This project, which will be presented as a Ph dissertation, proposes the creation of a specialized electronic pedagogical dictionary in English and Spanish for Spanish university students.We present here the summary of all those sections in the study which focus on the pedagogic approach of the proposed reference tool. Specifically: the selection of information categories and the elaboration of two structural elements (Systematic Introduction and User’s Guide) considered to be highly relevant for the user. After a brief overview of the state-of-the-arts, we summarize the theoretical framework where our proposal of a dictionary is included. Next, we state the pedagogical facts that justify our work and our objectives together with a list of the information categories and structural elements considered as relevant for our target user. Finally, we present a set of illustrations showing the possible layout for the dictionary interface in different phases of the search process.Downloads
