Summary/Abstract: Our research focuses on enriching the lexical repertoire of French philology students during the COVID-19 lockdown (March 2020 – May 2021). We answer two questions: 1) what are the dictionary resources of French philology students? 2) What are other sources of their lexical enrichment? In the conclusions, we predict the waning of spontaneous use of paper dictionaries and the growth of informal vocabulary-learning in students’ learning trajectories.
