What is usually found in a dictionary this tells you the meaning of word or phrase?

The part of a dictionary that tells you the meaning of a word or phrase is called the definition.

Sometimes, a dictionary will also include other information about a word, like:

* Pronunciation: How to say the word.

* Part of speech: What kind of word it is (noun, verb, adjective, etc.).

* Etymology: The history of the word and its origin.

* Synonyms: Words that mean the same thing.

* Antonyms: Words that mean the opposite.

* Examples: Sentences that show how the word is used.
