This study aims to identify co-text, context, and situation roles in the construction of meaning in reading by putting into practice a pedagogical approach during French for Specific Purposes classes. Initially, the research is formulated based on three study areas to extract the different definitions of those concepts, such as: teaching French as a foreign language, cognitive studies in reading, and lexicological approach. Then, a connection is established between those definitions and the role played by a bilingual dictionary while reading in a foreign language, and related themes are addressed under a bilingual lexicography perspective–more specifically, based on a dictionary project intended for novice student use in reading. Eventually, it could be observed that those conceptions permeate the entire preparation of such a project, either by defining its criteria or by representing the information to be provided with the dictionary.
