The web portal Lehnwortportal Deutsch (lwp.ids-mannheim.de), developed at the Institute for the German Language (IDS), aims to provide unified access to existing and possibly new dictionaries of German loanwords in other languages. Internally, the lexicographical information is represented as a directed acyclic graph of relations between words. The graph abstracts from the idiosyncrasies of the individual component dictionaries. This paper explores two different strategies to make complex graph-based cross-dictionary queries in such a portal more accessible to users. The first strategy effectively hides the underlying graph structure, but allows users to assign scopes (internally defined in terms of the graph structure) to search criteria. A second type of search strategy directly formulates queries in terms of the relational graph structure. In this case, search results are not entries but n-tuples of words (metalemmata, loanwords, etyma); a query consists of specifying properties of these words and relations between them. A working prototype of an easy-to-use human-readable declarative query language is presented and ways to interactively construct queries are discussed.
The representation of semantic relations between word senses of different entries in a dictionary is subject to a number of consistency requirements. This paper discusses the issue of maintaining and accessing consistent information on cross-references between sense-related items in electronic dictionaries from a mainly text-technological point of view. We present a number of consistency criteria for cross-referencing related senses and propose a practical approach to handling sense relations in an online dictionary. Our proposal is currently being tested in a large ongoing online dictionary project for German called elexiko. We focus on three different aspects of the dictionary development and editing process where consistency is an important issue: lexicographic data modelling, implementation of a lexicographic database system for an electronic dictionary, and development of practical tools for the lexicographer’s workbench.
The web portal Lehnwortportal Deutsch <lwp.ids-mannheim.de>, developed at the Institute for the German Language (IDS), aims to provide unified access to a growing number of lexicographical resources on German loanwords in other languages. This paper discusses different possibilities of creating an onomasiological access structure for portal users. We critically examine the meaning list of the “World Loanword Database” project (Haspelmath/Tadmor 2009a) as well as WordNet-based taxonomies and propose a new way of inductively creating a semantic classification scheme that takes both hyperonymic relations and semantic fields into account. We show how such a classification can be integrated into the underlying graph-based data representation of the Lehnwortportal and thus be exploited for advanced onomasiological search options.
