SELECTION AND PRESENTATION OF READY EQUIVALENTS IN A TRANSLATION DICTIONARY, WORK PAPER FOR CONFERENCE ON LEXICOGRAPHY, INDIANA UNIVERSITY, NOVEMBER 11-12, 1960.
MARTIN, SAMUEL E.
PROBLEMS WHICH ARISE IN CREATING BILINGUAL TRANSLATION DICTIONARIES WERE DISCUSSED. SOME OF THE MORE SIGNIFICANT CONCERNS IN BUILDING SUCH DICTIONARIES WERE OUTLINED AS (1) KNOWLEDGE OF THE POTENTIAL USER-GROUP, (2) AWARENESS OF SYNTACTICAL LANGUAGE DIFFERENCES, AND (3) ABILITY TO SKEW WHEN TRANSLATING FROM ONE LANGUAGE TO ANOTHER. EXAMPLES IN ENGLISH-JAPANESE AND ENGLISH-KOREAN DICTIONARIES WERE USED FOR ILLUSTRATIVE PURPOSES. THIS REPORT IS ONE OF A SERIES OF 13 PAPERS PRESENTED AT A CONFERENCE ON LEXICOGRAPHY, INDIANA UNIVERSITY, NOVEMBER 11-12, 1960. (JH)
