Dictionary-makers define one entry or unit as the largest unpredictable combinations of form and meaning.
They call each of these units lexemes or lexical items, because they're the parts of a lexicon, which is another word for dictionary.
In contrast, we wouldn't expect to find a dictionary entry for "deep hole" because if we look up “deep” and “hole,” we can figure out the meaning of the two combined.
