Abstract |
Today, terms that belong to and are defined in relation to many domains migrate into general language. It has become necessary to include such terms in general language dictionaries and provide a lexicographic definition for them. The lexical migration processes were examined from several perspectives, Meyer (2000), for example distinguishes several types of lexical migration of terms. This migration process can be examined from the point of view of lexicographic description. The purpose of this paper is to present an analysis of the lexicographic definitions of terms found in Hungarian monolingual dictionaries. I examined the definition of terms, such as laser, hologram, holography, that have migrated into general language from the domain of optics, and that are included in Hungarian general monolingual dictionaries. |
