Terms in School Dictionaries
Keywords:
terms, terminology, school dictionaries, lexicographyAbstract
As this article is based on lecture presented at the Round Table entitled Lexicography and Encyclopaedistics - Between Science and Profession, which was held on 25 May 2008, the authors try to answer the following questions that were also put forward in the invitation to the Round Table: 1. Does a dictionary really represent the synthesis of knowledge based on the most recent scientific insights?, and 2. How is it possible to implement a generally acceptable transfer of knowledge without disrupting the fundamental scientific criteria. Or, in other words, how is it possible, through lexicographic and encyclopaedic, works to introduce the younger generations to the world of science and culture that will until then still remain integral in its original sense? They offer models of presentation of terminology in two school dictionaries compiled at the Institute for Croatian Language and Linguistics.
