Abstract
The paper suggests the analysis of what a glossary is and how glossaries can be used in the process of teaching/learning materials development. A glossary is considered to be a form of a dictionary. Its various formats and purposes may be of great help when planning everyday practical language or specialist teachers’ activities including assessment sessions in case if the knowledge of a term and its definition are required. The description is supported by the samples used in work with Marine Engineers.
