It’s obvious that it plays the most leading role in studying a language. But there’s such a problem as what kind of a dictionary we must choose to improve our speech skills day by day. This report is devoted to the lexicography as a science of dictionary-making. The pursuit of lexicography is divided into two related disciplines: Practical lexicography is the art or craft of compiling, writing and editing dictionaries. Theoretical lexicography is the scholarly discipline of analyzing and describing the semantic relationships within the lexicon (vocabulary) of a language and developing theories of dictionary components and structures linking the data in dictionaries. This is sometimes referred to as met lexicography. A person devoted to lexicography is called a lexicographer, famously defined in Samuel Johnsons Dictionary of the English Language (1755) as A writer of dictionaries; a harmless drudge that busies himself in tracing the original, and detailing the signification of words. General lexicography focuses on the design, compilation, use and evaluation of general dictionaries, i.e. dictionaries that provide a description of the language in general use.
