1520年代,源自中世纪拉丁语 dictionarium “单词和短语的集合”,可能是 dictionarius (liber) “(单词)书”的缩写,源自拉丁语 dictionarius “关于单词的”,源自 dictio “说话,表达”,在晚期拉丁语中是“单词”的行动名词,源自 dicere “说话,告诉,说”,源自 PIE 词根 *deik- “展示”,也是“庄严地发音”。
据说中世纪拉丁语单词最初是由约翰内斯·德·加兰迪亚(John of Garland)在公元1220年左右出版的拉丁语词汇表的标题。可能最早出现在英语书名中的是托马斯·埃利奥特爵士的《拉丁语词典》(1538年)。
作为形容词,“关于词典的”,从1630年代开始使用。 Dictionarist “词典编纂者”(1610年代)比 dictionarian(1806年作为名词,1785年作为形容词)更早。 Grose 的1788年《俚语词典》中有“RICHARD SNARY。 一本词典。”
