Various kinds of paper dictionaries cannot satisfy the productive needs of EFL/ESL learners. With this in mind, McAlp-ine and Myles designed a new type of monolingual electronic dictionary. Coincidentally, the fourth edition of the Longman Dic-tionary of Contemporary English (LDOCE) (Summers 2003) was published with a supporting CD-ROM in 2003. The per-ceived guiding principle of the CD-ROM design was remarkably similar to that of McAlpine and Myles ’design. It can be as-sumed that the CD-ROM will provide EFL/ESL learners with strong support in their writing.
