In particular, it discusses the possibilities and limits of combining queries on sources with the various other search parameters and filters in the presently available online version of the EDD, thus paving the way for its improvement. This online version 3.0 was the product of a long-term project undertaken at the University of Inns-bruck. In the face of the intended revision work on our interface, the ten search parameters—from headwords to phrases—and the seven co-filters, such as usage labels, are tested in their relation to the filter sources, also considering the four different types of sources. Sections 2 to 5, after the Introduction, demonstrate these four types in turn. Given that any document of historiography, including language history as provided by the EDD, is only as good as its sources, the scrupulous analysis of Wright’s sources and of the limits of their compatibility with other search criteria is seen as an essential part of the overdue fair criticism of Wright’s unique achievement. The issue of the compatibility of search criteria in computerized dictionaries poses a new challenge that scholars have hardly responded to.","PeriodicalId":35106,"journal":{"name":"Dictionaries","volume":"42 1","pages":"169 - 190"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43155479","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}

It is at present the largest dictionary of its kind and contains a number of innovative features. To know a dictionary and its design features, it helps to know its editor and his academic work. This is especially true of this dictionary, in that dictionary-making projects in China are in most cases chief-editor-oriented. Jianhua Huang, the chief editor of the GDCFC, accumulated rich experience in lexicographical practice and spent two decades exploring all aspects of theoretical lexicography before starting to compile the dictionary. This paper first addresses Huang’s lexicography as a preparation and underpinning for the GDCFC and then examines the dictionary itself. The examination is carried out at two levels. At the macrostructural level, the focus is mainly on its coverage and headword selection, in comparison to its sole source dictionary, A Modern Chinese Dictionary (6th edn, 2012). At the microstructural level, the focus is on sense translation, illustrative example allocation and translation, and grammatical and pragmatical labeling, in comparison with A Chinese–EnglishDictionary (3rd edn, 2010), a well-established Chinese–English counterpart. This examination reveals that the GDCFC is lexicographically well-designed and that it has to a large extent achieved the goal of combining a reference dictionary and a learner’s dictionary into one.","PeriodicalId":35106,"journal":{"name":"Dictionaries","volume":"42 1","pages":"1 - 40"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46291859","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 Dictionary Society of North America: A History of the Early Years (Part IV) 北美词典协会:早期历史(第四部分)

{"title":"The Dictionary Society of North America: A History of the Early Years (Part IV)","authors":"Michael D. Adams","doi":"10.1353/dic.2021.0002","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/dic.2021.0002","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACT:The present article—in four parts, of which this is the final installment—is a history of the Dictionary Society of North America (DSNA) in its infancy and youth, and thus also a chapter in the history of the language sciences more generally, as well as a contribution to the sociology of organizations. Whereas the first three installments described the founding of DSNA, its leadership, and its membership during the society's early years, respectively, this installment focuses on its conferences and publications. DSNA originated in conferences of the early 1970s, and biennial conferences became central to DSNA's intellectual and social activity from 1977 throughout DSNA's history. Although it struggled to organize a publications program early on, the DSNA Newsletter has appeared twice annually since 1977, and the inaugural issue of the society's journal, Dictionaries, appeared in 1979. For a while, alongside these typical learned-society organs some of DSNA's leaders hoped to establish series of conference proceedings and monographs, but there performance, if not ambition, faltered. The newsletter and journal continue to thrive, but in those early years they faced challenges. This installment of the history explains how those challenges were resolved into what became the public identity of DSNA and celebrates the success of the scholarly activities in the society's early period—conferences, the newsletter, and the journal are all thriving today, and not by historical accident.","PeriodicalId":35106,"journal":{"name":"Dictionaries","volume":"42 1","pages":"1 - 94"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43794218","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}
