OWID und OWIDplus – lexikographisch-lexikologische Online-Informationssysteme des IDS Mannheim
(2023)
Lexikographische und lexikalische Ressourcen zum Deutschen werden an vielen unterschiedlichen Institutionen erarbeitet, z. B. an Akademien der Wissenschaften oder in privatwirtschaftlichen Verlagen. Auch am Leibniz-Institut für Deutsche Sprache (IDS) in Mannheim werden solche Materialien erstellt und der (Fach-)Öffentlichkeit unter dem Dach von OWID, dem „Online-Wortschatz-Informationssystem Deutsch“ (owid.de), präsentiert.
In this article, we provide an insight into the development and application of a corpus-lexicographic tool for finding neologisms that are not yet listed in German dictionaries. As a starting point, we used the words listed in a glossary of German neologisms surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. These words are lemma candidates for a new dictionary on COVID-19 discourse in German. They also provided the database used to develop and test the NeoRate tool. We report on the lexicographic work in our dictionary project, the design and functionalities of NeoRate, and describe the first test results with the tool, in particular with regard to previously unregistered words. Finally, we discuss further development of the tool and its possible applications.
Selten zuvor hat ein Ereignis in der Welt so direkt und für viele Menschen unmittelbar spürbar Einfluss auf den Wortschatz des Deutschen gehabt wie die Coronapandemie. Fast täglich konnte man ab Frühjahr 2020 neuen Wortschatz im Radio oder Fernsehen hören und in Zeitungen, Zeitschriften oder Beiträgen in den Sozialen Medien lesen. Zugleich sind zahlreiche medizinische und epidemiologische Fachausdrücke in den Allgemeinwortschatz eingegangen. Welche Spuren dieses dynamischen Wandels in Lexikon und Kommunikation auf lange Sicht in unserer Sprache zu finden sein werden, ist eine offene Frage, auf die die Sprachwissenschaft erst in den nächsten Jahrzehnten eine Antwort wird geben können. Erste Tendenzen aber zeichnen sich schon heute ab.
This introduction summarizes general issues combining lexicography and neology in the context of the Globalex Workshop on Lexicography and Neology series. We present each of the six papers composing this Special Issue, featuring two Slavic languages (Czech and Slovak) and two Romance ones (Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish in its European and Latin American varieties) and their diverse lexicographic research and representation, in specialized dictionaries of neologisms or general language ones, in monolingual, bilingual and multilingual lexical resources, and in print and digital dictionaries.
This is an introduction to a special issue of Dictionaries: Journal of the Dictionary Society of North America. It offers a characterization of neology and describes the Globalex-sponsored workshop at which the papers in the issue originated. It provides an overview of the papers, which treat lexicographical neology and neological lexicography in Danish, Dutch, Estonian, Frisian, Greek, Korean, Spanish, and Swahili and address relevant aspects of lexicography in those languages, presenting state-of-the-art research into neology and ideas about modern lexicographic treatment of neologisms in various dictionary types.
Are borrowed neologisms accepted more slowly into the German language than German words resulting from the application of word formation rules? This study addresses this question by focusing on two possible indicators for the acceptance of neologisms: a) frequency development of 239 German neologisms from the 1990s (loanwords as well as new words resulting from the application of word formation rules) in the German reference corpus DeReKo and b) frequency development in the use of pragmatic markers (‘flags’, namely quotation marks and phrases such as sogenannt ‘so-called’) with these words. In the second part of the article, a psycholinguistic approach to evaluating the (psychological) status of different neologisms and non-words in an experimentally controlled study and plans to carry out interviews in a field test to collect speakers’ opinions on the acceptance of the analysed neologisms are outlined. Finally, implications for the lexicographic treatment of both types of neologisms are discussed.
This paper discusses German neologisms in the so-called “new-media” and presents a German corpus-based online dictionary of neologisms. Several neological morphemes and lexemes, as well as their meaning will be presented, showing that these new modes of communication are an important source of enrichment of German lexicon.
