Summary: Starting from the inadequacy of the bilingual
croato-germanlexicography this research aims as follows: to find out how
topresent the croatian lexic and the corresponding germanequivalent in a
bilingual dictionary; to find out the markedlexical units in their relation
to the macro-structure of such adictionary (the diatopical, the
diastratical and the diachroniclexical units); to proof the appropriateness
of the choice of theexamples in the demonstration of the lemma; to work out
a newstructure of the lexicographical article.
Keywords: The bilingual lexicography, meta-linguistic description, lexicographical article, the common/standard lexic, the marked lexical units, the macro- and the microstructure of the dictionary, the regionalisms, the archaic expressions/words, the turk loanwords, the austrian loanwords, the semantics, the diastratically marked lexical units, the etymology, the lemma, the explication of the lemma, the demonstration of the use of a lemma, phrases, idioms, proverbs.
Research goals: Goals of the proposed research can be expressed as
follows: a) working out a new concept of presentation the croatian lexic
and his german equivalent in a bilingual dictionary; b) giving the
linguistic theoretical basis which will be used for the meta-linguistical
description of the lexic; c) establishing the existence of the marked
lexical units; d) working out a new structure of the lexicographic article;
e) checking the appropriateness of the selection of the examples in the
demonstration of a lemma. The final goal is the publication of a special
monography that could be used as a basis for a new bilingual croato-german
dictionary. Other information about the project.
