Why is there an index in a dictionary?

Well, there isn't an index in every dictionary. For the ones that have them though, I think it is because dictionaries are arranged alphabetically, and not everything that you want to find is arranged the same way. So, if you want to know measurement units for instance, you don't have to search the entire dictionary to find them. You could refer to the index, which will tell you what words are associated with that subject, and you could then look up the ones you needed more information about.
