In this paper we wil discuss our work using a grammar to extend the structural definition of dictionary entries to include mathematical expressions. The understanding and definition of structure of mathematical expressions provides an additional level of power to online mathematical dictionaries. MathProbe is a prototype active dictionary that provides interactive browsing and computation features for a dictionary of mathematical terms. The prototype dictionary uses xdvi as the display engine and Maple as the computation engine. The user can browse and read entries in the dictionary and execute instances of expressions used inthose entreis to assist, by example, understanding of the difinitions or in th ecourse of related activities of the user.
