Dictionary of Lexicography
Author: R. R. K. Hartmann
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 113476829X
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
Dictionaries are among the most frequently consulted books, yet we know remarkably little about them. Who makes them? Where do they come from? What do they offer? How can we evaluate them? The Dictionary of Lexicography provides answers to all these questions and addresses a wide range of issues: * the traditions of dictionary-making * the different types of dictionaries and other reference works (such as thesaurus, encyclopedia, atlas and telephone directory) * the principles and concerns of lexicographers and other reference professionals * the standards of dictionary criticism and dictionary use. It is both a professional handbook and an easy-to-use reference work. This is the first time that the subject has been covered in such a comprehensive manner in the form of a reference book. All articles are self-contained, cross-referenced and uniformly structured. The whole is an up-to-date and forward-looking survey of lexicography.

Backwords
Author: Cherie K. Miller
Publisher: Wisdom Creek PressLlc
ISBN: 9780981875682
Category : Games
Languages : en
Pages : 261
Book Description
Ever play a word game and need to find a word that ends in Q, W or Z? Most dictionaries present the word lists in alphabetical order, sorted by the first letter of a word. BackWords is unique because you're able easily search words using the last letter. Useful for school libraries, handy for building vocabulary for playing word games and completing crossword puzzles. Great gift-giving idea for those word games in your crowd. If you like word games, writing songs, or creating poetry, you will LOVE BackWords. As a writer, I am discovering this to be a useful tool and a valuable addition to my reference library. NOTE: Two reviewers said that the index isn't linking properly in their Kindles. We've since revised it to work with Kindle's "Active Table of Contents" and "Go To" guide items. If you have further ideas for making it even more useful, please let us know!

Illustrated Reverse Dictionary
Author: John Ellison Kahn
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780895779519
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 606
Book Description
The Illustrated Reverse Dictionary is an ingenious word-finder that helps you locate the precise word you want when you know generally what you mean but can't recall the exact term. With an ordinary dictionary, you look up the word to find its meaning. With the Illustrated Reverse Dictionary, you do just the opposite: you look up the meaning to find the word. The Illustrated Reverse Dictionary works like a thesaurus, which gives you words that are similar in meaning, but it does more. You start with an idea, a description of the term you're looking for, and the Illustrated Reverse Dictionary leads you through associated words to the exact one you want. Moreover, each synonym is defined, and you get antonyms (word opposites) and etymologies (word histories), which a thesaurus does not offer. Containing over 400,000 words - in more than 70,000 main entries, with over 130 detailed color illustrations, and more than 160 charts, the Illustrated Reverse Dictionary offers quick and accurate reference.
