The purpose of this quasi-experimental study is to examine the effects of using dictionaries on students’ in-depth vocabulary knowledge. The results showed that students’ in-depth vocabulary knowledge improved when they used their dictionaries, in particular electronic ones. Thus, using dictionaries as a learning tool deserves more attention in the context of EFL vocabulary learning and teaching.
