Summary/Abstract: The article represents a contribution to specialized lexicography, a discipline dealing with the preparation of specialized dictionaries of various fields (law, business, engineering, medicine, etc.). The main objective is to introduce an original model of a bilingual (English – Czech) specialized dictionary based on the user-oriented approach. The model enables Czech users to consult a specialized dictionary not only for bare terms but also for their linguistic and encyclopaedic properties. The inclusion of linguistic and non-linguistic information renders the dictionary suitable for a variety of uses, including production in and translation into the foreign language.
