woordlijst

A woordlijst is a list of words, typically presented in alphabetical order. It often serves as a vocabulary aid or a reference for specific terms within a particular subject or context.

Woordlijsten can vary greatly in scope and purpose. Some might be general collections of common words, while others may focus on specialized terminology for fields like science, technology, medicine, or law. Educational institutions often use them to help students learn new vocabulary, particularly in language acquisition or subject-specific studies.

The format of a woordlijst can also differ. It might simply be a plain list of words, or it could include additional information such as definitions, pronunciations, etymologies, or examples of usage. Online dictionaries and glossaries are modern iterations of the woordlijst concept, offering dynamic and searchable access to word information. The term itself is Dutch and translates directly to "word list."
