Tackling lexicographical anisomorphism in front matter comments
Abstract
This paper contains a presentation of areas, illustrated by examples from the Finnish language, where the inclusion of front matter notes concerning certain construction patterns typical of the Finnish language may be advisable. The present writer holds that similar problems may occur also in bilingual dictionaries involving other languages and thus proposes that comments on topics such as source language hypernymy without target language equivalency as well as common source language grammatical constructions of a lexicalized character, lacking one-to-one correspondencies in the target language may deserve preface comment.
