While mainstream English dictionaries often borrow from one another for common definitions and features, they must also strive to differentiate themselves for competitive reasons. One such distinctive effort is the Naver English Dictionary, whose ongoing development coincides with the unstoppable trend towards digitalisation in terms of appification in smartphones, other electronic devices and...

Both thesauri and ontologies belong to Knowledge Organization Systems (KOSs) aiming to represent concept relations within a specific domain. Thesauri have emerged within the domain of lexicography, while ontologies originate from philosophy. Thesauri usually represent concepts of general language, while ontologies exist to represent the relations of terms within a specialized domain. Even...

The Bible is by far the most translated work of literature with translations encompassing more than 700 languages in the year 2020. Most translations were made over the past two hundred or so years, when missionary work resulted in Bible translations into numerous languages outside the Western cultural sphere, notably in Africa and Asia, leaving their mark also on lexicography. Parallel to or...

In this article, an attempt will be made to organise the overall macrostructure of Bangla adjectives by incorporating the most recognised two Bangla dictionaries with the available Bangla monolingual corpus. Our assumption is that there is a link between the degree of lexicalisation and the type of entry will be confirmed if we look at the dictionary entries for Bangla adjectival terms that...

Monolingual dictionaries are usually forgiven for not providing more grammatical information because their main target users are native speakers or highly-advanced learners, who likely do not have much need to look up the meaning and usage of, say, high-frequency function words. Dictionaries, however, also serve as encyclopaedias of linguistic information which reflect what we know and...

This paper is an attempt to contribute to the discussion of problems and resolutions to lexicographic projects which focuses on a non-prototypical case for lexicographic work. Using the learnings gained from the UP Monolinggwal na Diksyunaryo sa Filipino (UP Monolingual Dictionary in Filipino) project as the basis, three key concerns are identified and set as the framework for ongoing and...
