Abstract

Abstract The present paper seeks to investigate the representation of a relevant number of gendered epithets in two prominent Romanian dictionaries, the most recent edition of DOOM (2021, Third Edition) and the current edition of DEX (2016, Revised Edition based on the first and second editions). Taking into account the prescriptive dimension which both these dictionaries share and the fact that they both retain their status as significant reference books in present-day Romania, the paper examines the way in which these current dictionaries choose to describe these words, arguing for the significance of the “metadata” (Nunberg, 2018; Pullum, 2018) component in the lexicographical representation of lexical items which can function as gendered insults.

两本著名罗马尼亚语词典中的性别形容词

摘要:本文旨在调查两个著名的罗马尼亚词典中相关数量的性别形容词的表示，最新版本的DOOM(2021年，第三版)和当前版本的DEX(2016年，基于第一版和第二版的修订版)。考虑到这两本词典共享的规定性维度，以及它们在当今罗马尼亚都保留着重要参考书的地位，本文研究了这些当前词典选择描述这些词的方式，论证了“元数据”的重要性(Nunberg, 2018;Pullum, 2018)词汇项目的词典编纂表示中的组成部分，这些词汇项目可以作为性别侮辱。
