How do I use Bookmark Keywords?

Keywords are custom shortcuts to bookmarks. To set a keyword, go to Bookmarks -> Manage Bookmarks and select the bookmark you want to set a keyword for. Click Properties and enter your keyword for that bookmark. You will now be able to go to that address by entering its keyword in the address bar.

You can also use a keyword to trigger an entry point to a bookmark.
For example, to set up a dictionary search, set up the bookmark as:
Name: Dictionary.com
Location: http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=%s
Keyword: dic

The %s is an entry point for whatever you type after the keyword; so if I typed:
dic test
SeaMonkey would go to http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=test
