Abstract

Lexicographic exclusion filtering as a strategy to determine the suitability of neologisms to be included in dictionaries has proved to be insufficient. Therefore, a methodology to rank neologisms in a more objective and quantitative way, based on their most distinctive features as new words is put forward here. In addition, the results of applying this methodology to a sample of more than 3,000 units compiled from Spanish newspapers over a specific time span (2009-2016) are contrasted along with the insights provided by a group of native speakers collected by means of a crowdsourcing strategy. By combining theoretical approaches and speakers’ insights, the validity of the suggested methodology is partially corroborated. Moreover, insights given by the speakers involved concerning their prescriptive conception of neology and its place within dictionaries are outlined.
超越时间线:将理论前提和演讲者对西班牙语新词评估、验证和纳入词典的见解相结合的挑战
词典排除过滤作为一种确定新词是否适合纳入词典的策略已被证明是不够的。因此,本文提出了一种根据新词最鲜明的特征,更客观、更定量地对新词进行排序的方法。此外,将该方法应用于特定时间跨度(2009-2016年)从西班牙报纸中汇编的3000多份样本的结果,与通过众包策略收集的一组母语人士提供的见解进行了对比。通过结合理论方法和演讲者的见解,所建议的方法的有效性得到部分证实。此外,演讲者就他们对新词的规定性概念及其在词典中的位置给出了见解。

期刊介绍: The International Journal of Lexicography was launched in 1988. Interdisciplinary as well as international, it is concerned with all aspects of lexicography, including issues of design, compilation and use, and with dictionaries of all languages, though the chief focus is on dictionaries of the major European languages - monolingual and bilingual, synchronic and diachronic, pedagogical and encyclopedic. The Journal recognizes the vital role of lexicographical theory and research, and of developments in related fields such as computational linguistics, and welcomes contributions in these areas.
