Abstract

This paper analyses the occurrence and lexicographic representation of professional nouns and noun phrases in Croatian general and terminological dictionaries. The focus of study are E-dictionaries and terminological databases. The authors determine in which fields such terms occur, whether both members of a feminine-masculine pair are present, and how the terms are defined. They present a model for the compilation of entries of such headwords on the example of linguistic terminology as well as examining how such terms are represented in the Croatian Web Dictionary – Mrežnik. In this way, the results of the work within the frame of the projects Croatian Web Dictionary – Mrežnik and Male and Female in the Croatian Language are combined, and the difference among entries in general e-dictionaries and terminological database is shown.
