This paper presents the methodology of a research project on the use of specialised German dictionaries. A mixed-methods research approach will help to answer the following main questions, concerning the lexicographic presentation of the data on the one hand and the data collection on the other hand: How do different systems of data organization and presentation affect the likelihood that users will correctly find and select the data they look up? And does the probability of success increase if users are familiar with the system? Which advantages and disadvantages do lexicographers and specialised languages experts see in using quantitative methods to extract terms? And are these methods accepted and considered reliable by the user community?
This article is concerned with the choice of a corpus to be used as the empirical basis of a bilingual, bidirectional and conceptual learner dictionary of German and Spanish. Several standard corpora as well as web corpora for German and Spanish will be compared with respect to their size, the variety of genres they contain, the time span and geographical areas covered and what kind of search facilities they allow (e.g. word queries based on lemmata rather than on word forms). It will be argued that, when standard corpora fail to meet a particular requirement, web data may provide a useful alternative for lexicographical purposes provided they are both linguistically (i.e. morpho-syntactically) and meta-linguistically tagged.
Der Beitrag stellt die theoretischen und methodologischen Grundlagen des Lernerwörterbuchprojekts DICONALE anhand einiger Analysebeispiele vor. Es handelt sich um ein zweisprachig-bidirektionales, onomasiologisch-konzeptuell ausgerichtetes Verbwörterbuch, das sowohl zur Konsultation für Produktionszwecke ab B2-Niveau im Bereich DaF und ELE als auch für den Übersetzungsprozess in die jeweilige Fremdsprache dienlich sein soll. Es beruht auf häufigkeitsbasierten Daten vergleichbarer elektronisch verfügbarer Korpora beider Sprachen und soll dem Benutzer online zugänglich gemacht werden. Das Wörterbuch gliedert sich in unterschiedliche konzeptuelle (Sub)Felder, denen sich lexikalisch-semantische (Mini)Paradigmen zuordnen lassen. Es basiert auf einem modular-multilateralen lexikologischen Beschreibungsmodell, welches einzelsprachliche und sprachvergleichend relevante korpusbasierte Informationen zu Form, Bedeutung und Verwendung durch die Information von verschiedenen paradigmatischen und syntagmatischen Relationen verbaler und deverbaler Lexeme präsentiert.
Vergleichbare Korpora für multilinguale kontrastive Studien. Herausforderungen und Desiderata

This contribution aims to show the necessity of working in the development of multilingual corpora and appropriate tools for multilingual contrastive studies. We take the corpus of the lexicographical project COMBIDIGILEX as example to show, how difficultit is to build a suitable data basis to study and compare linguistic phenomena in German, Spanish and Portuguese. Despite the availability of big reference corpora for the three languages (at least for written language), it is not able to obtain a comparable data basis from, because the mentioned corpora are created according to different requirements and they are also powered by disparate information systems and analyse tools. To break the status quo, we plead for increasing research infrastructures by means of compatible language technology and sharing data.
