Am 12. Mai 1965 nahmen der Staat Israel und die Bundesrepublik Deutschland offiziell diplomatische Beziehungen auf. Damit kam über 15 Jahre nach der Konstitution der beiden Länder und 20 Jahre nach dem Ende der Shoah ein komplexer Prozess der langsamen politischen Annäherung zu einem keineswegs selbstverständlichen Abschluss. Das fünfzigjährige Jubiläum dieses Ereignisses im Jahr 2015 war weltweit, vor allem aber in Israel und Deutschland, Anlass für zahlreiche Veranstaltungen, über die eine offizielle bilaterale Webseite <www.de50il.org/> (Stand: 6.11.2017) Auskunft gibt. Im Rahmen des Jubiläums wurde am 30. September 2015 in einer feierlichen Abendveranstaltung im Jüdischen Museum Berlin offiziell das „Wörterbuch deutscher Lehnwörter im Hebräischen“ von Uriel Adiv in einer ersten Fassung im „Lehnwortportal Deutsch“ des IDS freigeschaltet. Eine von Koautor Jakob Mendel erheblich überarbeitete und verbesserte zweite Version ging im Mai 2017 online. Der vorliegende Beitrag möchte einige Hintergründe zum deutschen Lehnwortschatz im modernen Hebräischen darstellen sowie die Entstehungsgeschichte des Werks und seinen Platz in der lehnwortlexikografischen Publikationsplattform „Lehnwortportal Deutsch“ <http://lwp.ids-mannheim.de/> (Stand: 6.11.2017) beleuchten.

This survey describes the practice of dictionary criticism in German philological periodicals. It focuses on reviews of general dictionaries of contemporary German as well as of historical dictionaries of German. Our results show that only a few reference works are reviewed by only a small group of reviewers, and different volumes of dictionaries are not necessarily reviewed systematically. On the criteria for the selection of the reviewed dictionaries one can only speculate. All in all, this rather unsystematic review practice can be interpreted as a disregard of the work of lexicographers, as a neglect of the interests of potential dictionary users, and as a sad disinterest of philologists in lexicographic work.

Lexicographic meaning descriptions of German lexical items which are formally and semantically similar and therefore easily confused (so-called paronyms) often do not reflect their current usage of lexical items. They can even contradict one’s personal intuition or disagree with lexical usage as observed in public discourse. The reasons are manifold. Language data used for compiling dictionaries is either outdated, or lexicographic practice is rather conventional and does not take advantage of corpus-assisted approaches to semantic analysis. Despite of various modern electronic or online reference works speakers face uncertainties when dealing with easily confusable words. These are for example sensibel/sensitiv (sensitive) or kindisch/kindlich (childish/childlike). Existing dictionaries often do not provide satisfactory answers as to how to use these sets correctly. Numerous questions addressed in online forums show where uncertainties with paronyms are and why users demand further assistance concerning proper contextual usage (cf. Storjohann 2015). There are different reasons why users misuse certain items or mix up words which are similar in form and meaning. As data from written and more spontaneous language resources suggest, some confusions arise due to ongoing semantic change in the current use of some paronyms. This paper identifies shortcomings of contemporary German Dictionaries and discusses innovative ways of empirical lexicographic work that might pave the way for a new data-driven, descriptive reference work of confusable German terms. Currently, such a guide is being developed at the Institute for German Language in Mannheim implementing corpora and diverse corpus-analytical methods. Its objective is to compile a dictionary with contrastive entries which is a useful reference tool in situation of language doubt. At the same time, it aims at sensitizing users of context dependency and language change.
