This article describes an English Zulu learners’ dictionary that is part of a larger set of information tools, namely an online Zulu course, an e-dictionary of possessives (which was implemented earlier) accompanied by training software offering translation tasks on several levels, and an ontology of morphemic items categorizing and describing all parts of speech of Zulu. The underlying lexicographic database contains the usual type of lexicographic data, such as translation equivalents and their respective morphosyntactic data, but its entries have been extended with data related to the lessons of the online course in order to enable the learner to link both tools autonomously. The ‘outer matter’ is integrated into the website in the form of several texts on additional web pages (how-to-use, typical outputs, grammar tables, information on morphosyntactic rules, etc.). The dictionary comprises a modular system, where each module fulfils one of the necessary functions.
Die Preußische Akademie der Wissenschaften zu Berlin hat im Jahr 1906 auf Bitte der deutschen Regierung die Verantwortung für die Arbeiten zur Vollendung des Deutschen Wörterbuchs von Jacob Grimm und Wilhelm Grimm übernommen. Im Jahr 1929/30 hat sie die Berliner Arbeitsstelle gegründet. Nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg wurde dieses lexikographische Grundlagenwerk in den Jahrzehnten der Spaltung Deutschlands, aber in enger Gemeinschaft einer Berliner und einer Göttinger Arbeitsstelle zum Abschluss gebracht. Schon in den fünfziger Jahren entschlossen sich die Akademien in Berlin und Göttingen, „zunächst“ die völlige Neubearbeitung der ältesten Teile des Werks, die die Brüder Grimm zwischen 1852 und 1863 noch selbst erarbeitet hatten, vorzunehmen. Diese Neubearbeitung ist inzwischen nahezu abgeschlossen. Umso deutlicher zeigt sich aber nun, dass auch die übrigen Teile dringend der Neubearbeitung bedürfen. Das Jahrhundertwerk der Brüder Grimm, ihre wichtigste gemeinsame sprachwissenschaftliche Leistung, heute in der ganzen Welt täglich von Tausenden im Internet benutzt, Fundament der gesamten neueren deutschen Wortforschung, kann seine Aufgabe nur erfüllen, wenn es nicht als Museumsstück bewundert, sondern in gründlich erneuerter Form als aktuelles Auskunftsmittel fortgeführt wird. In dieser Situation war die Schließung der Berliner Arbeitsstelle im Dezember 2012 das falsche Signal.
Gegenstand dieser Arbeit sind syntagmatische Verwendungsmuster in einsprachigen deutschen Wörterbüchern. Es wurden zehn einsprachige deutsche Wörterbücher (darunter Allgemeine Bedeutungswörterbücher, Lernerwörterbücher und auf Syntagmen fokussierte Spezialwörterbücher) und die darin befindlichen syntagmatischen Verwendungsmuster untersucht. Dabei wurde der Frage nachgegangen, wie in einsprachigen deutschen Wörterbüchern der syntagmatische Kontext eines Wortes berücksichtigt und in lexikografischer Hinsicht umgesetzt wird. Die typografischen Besonderheiten von jedem untersuchten Werk – gedruckt wie online publiziert – wurden herausgearbeitet. Dies wurde anhand von Syntagmen aus 30 Wortartikeln, die den Wortarten Nomen, Verben und Adjektive zugeordnet sind, systematisch beleuchtet.
When becoming integrated into the German vocabulary, foreign words reflect paradigmatic changes regarding orthography, grammar as well as semantics. In this context,German orthography is also highly determined by orthographic codification, which continues to influence the development of spelling to the present day. This study compares digital linguistically annotated corpora containing texts written by professional as well as non-professional writers; these corpora contain several billion foreign words (of Greek, Latin and French origin, and in the second part of the study of English/American and Italian origin), studied over a period of 20 years following the German orthographic reform of 1996. The results may potentially help the official regulations to adapt to the spelling practices observed – either by describing the rules more precisely or by proposing possible spelling variants or eliminating those which are not in common use. The study may also help to support correct lexicographic codification in dictionaries.
Wiktionary is increasingly gaining influence in a wide variety of linguistic fields such as NLP and lexicography, and has great potential to become a serious competitor for publisher-based and academic dictionaries. However, little is known about the "crowd" that is responsible for the content of Wiktionary. In this article, we want to shed some light on selected questions concerning large-scale cooperative work in online dictionaries. To this end, we use quantitative analyses of the complete edit history files of the English and German Wiktionary language editions. Concerning the distribution of revisions over users, we show that — compared to the overall user base — only very few authors are responsible for the vast majority of revisions in the two Wiktionary editions. In the next step, we compare this distribution to the distribution of revisions over all the articles. The articles are subsequently analysed in terms of rigour and diversity, typical revision patterns through time, and novelty (the time since the last revision). We close with an examination of the relationship between corpus frequencies of headwords in articles, the number of article visits, and the number of revisions made to articles.
The wdlpOst dictionary writing system to be presented in this paper has been developed for the specific purposes of a lexicographical project on German loanwords in the East Slavic languages Russian, Belarusian, and Ukrainian. The project’s main objectives are (i) to document those loanwords for which a cognate lexical borrowing from German is known in Polish and (ii) to establish possible borrowing pathways for these lexical items. In the first phase of the project, the collaborative client/server architecture of the wdlpOst system has been used for excerpting detailed lexicographical information from a large range of historical and contemporary East Slavic dictionaries, taking the entries in a large dictionary of German loanwords in Polish as a common frame of reference. For the project’s second phase, the wdlpOst system provides innovative tooling for compiling entries of the East Slavic loanwords. Most importantly, the numerous word sense definitions for a set of cognate loanwords, as excerpted from different lexicographical sources, are mapped onto a system of newly defined cross-language word senses; in a similar vein, the phonemic and graphemic variation in the loanwords and their derivatives is captured through a tool that abstracts from dictionary-specific idiosyncrasies.
Lexicography of Language Contact: An Internet Dictionary of Words of German Origin in Tok Pisin
(2016)
The paper presents an ongoing project in the domain of lexicography of language contact, namely, the “Internet Dictionary of Words of German Origin in Tok Pisin”. The German influence onto the lexicon of the main pidgin language of Papua New Guinea has its roots in the German colonial empire, where Tok Pisin played an important role as a lingua franca in the colony of German New Guinea. Tok Pisin also served as an intermediate language for many borrowing processes; that is, German loans entered many languages in the South Pacific via Tok Pisin. The Internet Dictionary of Words of German Origin in Tok Pisin is based on all available lexicographical sources from the early 20th century up to now. These sources are systematically evaluated within our project; the results will be documented in the dictionary. The microstructure of the dictionary will be presented with respect to its major features: documentation of sources, examples for word usage, audio files, and lexicographic comment.
The Online Bibliography of Electronic Lexicography (OBELEXmeta) is a bibliographic database which is developed for researchers working in the field of dictionary research. The platform is hosted at the Institute for the German Language (Institut für Deutsche Sprache, IDS) in Mannheim. The poster presentation aims at presenting the current status of the ongoing project.
Emissionsverben und Argumentstrukturmuster. Empirie und lexikographische Kodifizierung im DaF-Umfeld
(2016)
Der Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit einigen Emissionsverben (EV) und ihrer lexikographischen Kodifizierung. Anhand von empirischen Daten aus dem deutschen Referenzkorpus DEREKO sollen die unterschiedlichen Argumentstrukturmuster (ASTRM) und Argumentrealisierungsmuster (ARM) dieser Verben genauer untersucht und ihre entsprechende lexikographische Kodifizierung sowohl in zwei allgemeinsprachlichen Wörterbüchern (AWB) des Deutschen als auch in drei einsprachigen Lernerwörterbüchern (LWB) für DaF überprüft werden. Von Interesse sind im besonderen Maße die Fragen, ob die ausgewählten Wörterbücher (WB) den empirisch belegten Sprachgebrauch kodifizieren und welche der lexikographischen Funktionen (Sprachdokumentation, Sprachkonsultation u.a. für das Umfeld Deutsch als Fremdsprache) sie erfüllen.
