This paper describes the development of a new range of bilingual dictionaries which are based on translating the explanations in monolingual Cobuild dictionaries2 into the user's mother tongue. These dictionaries have been designed by Cobuild's Editor-in-Chief, John Sinclair, primarily to address the needs of language learners. The philosophy which underlies the design reveals important assumptions about the nature and limits of equivalence. Moreover, the development and implementation of the editorial policies have raised a number of issues which are of immediate concern to scholars of translation and to applied linguists. These include, for example, the nature and boundaries of the units of language and hence of the unit of translation, as well as the practical question of handling new genres in translation. This paper concentrates on the treatment of equivalence in the range of dictionaries under discussion.
