摘要

本研究旨在调查现代译者使用的信息来源，特别是他们是使用传统的词典工具，还是转而偏爱更新的信息来源。数据是通过在线调查收集的。样本主要包括 229 名不同语言和专业的波兰语译员。调查发现，最常用的信息来源是搜索引擎，其次是维基百科/类似网站和在线平行文本。官方出版的词典也经常使用。此外，字典被认为是译员在工作中最离不开的资料来源（占答复总数的 34%）；8% 的答复提到印刷字典是译员工作中不可或缺的，而参与研究的 87% 的译员都使用印刷字典。83% 的受访者使用无指定作者的在线词典，但 99% 的受访者会定期（50%）或偶尔（49%）核实词典内容。

Print Dictionaries Are Still in Use: A Survey of Source Preferences by Polish Translators

The study aimed to investigate the sources used by modern translators, specifically whether they use traditional lexicographic tools or diverted their preferences to newer sources of information. Data was collected via an online survey. The sample consisted of 229 mainly Polish translators of various languages and specialisations. It was found that the most frequently used source was the search engine, followed by Wikipedia/similar and online parallel texts. Officially published dictionaries are used often. Moreover, dictionaries were most often cited as the sources that translators could not imagine working without (34% of the total responses); 8% of the responses mentioned printed dictionaries as indispensable in translators’ work and these are used by 87% of the translators who took part in the study. Online dictionaries without a specified author are used by 83% of respondents, but 99% of them verify the content either regularly (50%) or occasionally (49%).

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.
