If you type a word and the word is too long, look it up in your dictionary. All dictionaries show you 4 to break a word. And they also 5 you how a word is spoken. Every dictionary, of course, tells you what a word means. But some words, like “get or “take , may have dozens of meanings. In some dictionaries, the main meanings are often list first.
