Multiword entries are arranged in the alphabetic sequence of each successive word in the entry and compound words are considered to be single words; for example, 'absolute transfer' is listed before 'absolutely' and 'ice shelter' is listed before 'ice-breaking'. For the user's convenience, some multiword entries are listed more than once; for example, 'in abeyance' can be found alphabetically under 'abeyance, in' as well as under 'in abeyance'. English entries are printed in bold type and sometimes include a number of contexts which are printed in brackets, in italics. French equivalents are printed in ordinary Roman characters. The Lexicon usually gives only one French equivalent for each English entry; however, it also lists synonyms that are also found in the statutes. These are entered in alphabetical order. The gender of French nouns is shown as well as the feminine form, if irregular. Nouns denoting professions or occupations are listed in the masculine form with no indication of the gender where the feminine form is formed regularly.</p><p>GUIDE D'UTILISATIONLe lexique anglais-franais est class par ordre alphabtique.
