The Learner's Dictionaries are frequency-thematic. They can be arranged by themes, levels or parts of speech, not by the alphabet.

The Learner's Dictionaries can include up to 12'000 lemmas. They are divided into 8 importance levels from Beginner to Upper-Intermediate (corresponding to the CEFR levels A1-B2), as well as 300 vocabulary themes grouped into 30 superthemes.

Entries in the Learner's Dictionaries provide translations, transliterations and transcriptions.

Theme-arranged dictionaries are intended to help you learn lemmas regardless of their levels or revise them in a thematic way. For this, the entries are arranged only by themes.
