The recent boom in Greek lexicography has led to an increase in the publication of children's dictionaries. At the same time, discussions concerning gender issues and gender bias in language have been gaining considerable interest both in academia and wider society, reflecting a broader international trend. This research was based on the assumption that children's dictionaries provide an environment where such issues are reflected. This hypothesis was examined on a sample corpus of six dictionaries that are in current use, based on three parameters: the inclusion of the feminine form of the headword in noun entries denoting human referents, the portrayal of gender in usage examples, and the representation of gender in pictorial illustrations.","PeriodicalId":35106,"journal":{"name":"Dictionaries","volume":"43 1","pages":"167 - 192"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44939821","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The first printed dictionary appeared relatively early in 1547 and was followed by much lexicographical activity over the following centuries. By the nineteenth century, there was a glut of bilingual dictionaries, but no dictionaries were available specifically for children until 1968. The majority of children's dictionaries up to the 1990s were either monolingual or bilingual picture dictionaries based on English publications lacking important Welsh words with no English equivalent and little or no grammatical information. Since that time there have been considerable developments: original dictionaries have been produced for different age groups, with due attention given to the grammatical information supplied and better use made of illustrations. An online Welsh dictionary demonstrates what could be achieved for children, given sufficient resources.","PeriodicalId":35106,"journal":{"name":"Dictionaries","volume":"43 1","pages":"143 - 166"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42006138","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over the same period, new terms such as social distancing entered the language, and existing words like bubble took on new meanings. This paper describes the methods used by Oxford children's dictionaries to capture such changes and to use them to inform the development of dictionaries for children. It draws on examples from past and current children's dictionaries to show the development of key features, such as child-oriented definitions and citations from children's literature, and discusses the influence of external factors on dictionary content over the past decade. Case studies using the Oxford Children's Language Corpus (OCLC) show how it supports the creation of creative and innovative dictionaries such as the Oxford Roald Dahl Dictionary and curriculum-driven subject dictionaries like the Oxford Illustrated Computing Dictionary. The inclusion in the OCLC of data from the BBC 500 Words children's writing competition has also influenced the content of current dictionaries. Finally, the growth of digital platforms, apps, and educational technologies leads to a discussion of the potential role of automation in children's lexicography in the twenty-first century.","PeriodicalId":35106,"journal":{"name":"Dictionaries","volume":"43 1","pages":"107 - 77"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43464883","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such activities help language learners to use and develop plurilingualism and are regarded as increasingly important in children's development given the linguistic and cultural superdiversity in many European schools. This paper describes a dictionary-creation project in a linguistically superdiverse primary school in Spain, which showed how creating a dictionary offers opportunities for children and teachers to engage collaboratively in mediation activities that help to bridge concepts, text and communication that are central to the process of co-constructing meaning between people. It draws on evidence from pre-service teachers' weekly reflections and includes photographs of classroom-based activities and samples of teaching and learning materials used in the project.","PeriodicalId":35106,"journal":{"name":"Dictionaries","volume":"43 1","pages":"193 - 214"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46541103","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Underlying the project is a panhispanic perspective on the Spanish language, plain language, and public administration terminology. DiPAP provides two types of definitions, institutional and simplified (plain language), along with equivalents in several Spanish varieties. Its database contains a term bank, a document bank, and a government procedures bank, all based on internet sources. These banks make up the Corpus panhispánico de la administración pública (CorpusPAP). CorpusPAP allows users to acquire information from institutional websites and access additional related information, including DiPAP and CorpusPAP. The terminology used in DiPAP’s government procedures bank lies at the intersection between administrative language and the plain language best suited for the general population.","PeriodicalId":35106,"journal":{"name":"Dictionaries","volume":"42 1","pages":"147 - 168"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47512142","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Towards Completing the Second Edition of the Anglo-Norman Dictionary 完成《盎格鲁-诺曼大词典》第二版

It describes the central process of single-letter revision that forms the basis of the Second Edition, as well as several ancillary revision projects that have impacted upon the dictionary as a whole: the introduction of references to cog-nate dictionaries, of a semantic tag, of a chronology of dated citations, and (for the future) of a language tag. The digital format allows for a modular approach to revision that has already expanded a purely semantic dictionary to one with historical, etymological and onomasiological elements. A new grant now allows for the completion of the Second Edition, initiated in the 1990s. This article shows the significance of this achievement, while arguing that as an online resource the Anglo-Norman Dictionary can continue to grow in several ways. In that sense, the editorial team is ready to admit that the project remains “incomplete.”","PeriodicalId":35106,"journal":{"name":"Dictionaries","volume":"42 1","pages":"131 - 145"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49061696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
