    The article analyzes the use of bilingual dictionaries in the translation process of polysemic verbs from Italian into German. The polysemic verbs are described in a contrastive way in order to highlight the specific difficulties of Italian speakers who are learning German as a foreign language. The empirical research focuses on how the Italian students use their dictionary when faced with translation difficulties presented by polysemic verbs. The results show the relationship between difficulties, errors in translation and the use of the bilingual dictionary.

    Zusammenfassung Fremdsprachenlernende recherchieren immer häufiger in elektronischen bzw. Online- Wörterbüchern oder holen ihre Smartphones hervor, um sprachliche Schwierigkeiten anhand von Online-Informationen oder mit Hilfe von (Wörterbuch-)Applikationen zu überwinden. Gleichzeitig scheint es, als würden sie den Wortschatzerwerb bzw. das Vokabellernen vernachlässigen. Wie werden Wörterbücher von DaF-Lernenden benutzt? Hat das Benutzungsverhalten Einfluss auf den Wortschatzerwerb? Werden überhaupt noch Vokabeln gelernt und kann das Wörterbuch dabei eine unterstützende Rolle spielen? Diese Fragen werden anhand von empirischen Ergebnissen aus der Wörterbuchbenutzungsforschung diskutiert, um schließlich für eine Wörterbuchdidaktik im Rahmen des DaF-Unterrichts zu plädieren

    The consultation of dictionaries and encyclopedias is an essential part of the basic strategies aimed at retrieving new information and acquiring knowledge. It seems that the use of dictionaries is not topical in actual foreign language teaching situations, although the Council of Europe, with its political objectives in the field of modern languages and in support of multilingualism and lifelong learning, has been emphasizing the fundamental role of reference tools like dictionaries, as well as a high level of appropriate skills and expertise in their use. This article aims to present recent findings from research into dictionary use and to discuss several important results of empirical studies in the field of foreign language learning and teaching, including online dictionaries and mobile devices in particular. Based on these findings, lastly the article reviews some requests related to lexicographical practice, empirical studies and foreign language teaching
