Making Dictionaries for Paper or Screen: Implications for Conceptual Design
Abstract
With the development of digital dictionaries we can foresee the dictionary as a genre that will gradually change. In this paper, one possible direction of such a change is treated, based on considerations from a Danish project that seeks to combine digitized versions of two existing paper dictionaries with a corpus site into an online reference tool with new facilities. Examples of morphological and syntactic information are shown to illustrate how the digital possibilities necessitate a revision of the existing DTDs/XML schemas traditionally used in paper dictionaries.
