We discuss user needs with respect to collocations, and we make proposals for the treatment of collocations in a multifunctional electronic dictionary. Most importantly, we suggest that collocations should be promoted to the status of secondary treatment units, which would allow the user to access collocational information and information about collocations depending on the actual needs. We furthermore list linguistic properties and relations of collocations which should be described in an electronic dictionary. Our model has been inplemented by Spohr (2005) in the framework of Description Logic.
