1. Usage examples: While some dictionaries include sample sentences or phrases to illustrate the usage of a word, not all dictionary entries provide this information.
2. Etymology: Although some dictionaries mention the origin or historical development of a word, many basic dictionary entries do not include etymological information.
3. Synonyms and antonyms: While some dictionaries may provide synonyms or antonyms for a word, it is not a standard inclusion in all dictionary entries.
4. Collocations: Dictionaries typically do not list specific words that commonly collocate or go together with the word being defined, such as phrases or idiomatic expressions.
5. Pronunciation variation: Basic dictionary entries usually provide a standardized pronunciation for a word, but regional or dialect-specific variations in pronunciation may not be included.
6. Cultural or contextual information: Dictionary entries generally focus on the meaning and usage of a word, rather than providing cultural or contextual information related to the word in question.
