Different disciplines approach the definition of humor from different angles: philosophy through theoretical frameworks that explain why people find things funny, psychology through behavioral and dispositional dimensions that describe how humor is experienced and expressed. This paper examines the treatment of humor in terms of its lexicographic definition, drawing on entries from six Greek...

A good deal of lexicographic research is concerned with evaluating or improving the accessibility of lexicographic data by making it easier for users to find and interpret. However, there is another sense of accessibility that has received less attention. This sense of accessibility concerns the design of resources so that they can be used by any person irrespective of personal features such...

Based on OpenAI’s moderation model, we describe a method developed to automatically identify unwanted discriminatory content in the citations found in the printed edition of Den Danske Ordbog (DDO, 2003–2005). Today, the DDO is published online and is continuously revised and expanded with new headwords. We begin by testing whether the model can identify 234 citations that have been removed...

This poster presents the research on the application of different approaches to the information extraction process and encoding of the 18th century Larramendi’s Trilingual Dictionary. The digitisation and computational analysis of historical dictionaries present significant challenges due to archaic typefaces, complex layouts, and inconsistent lexicographic structures. Manuel de Larramendi's...

With generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools becoming more widely available and integrated into clinical environments, physicians are more frequently exploring ways to integrate AI into their clinical documentation and decision-making processes (Brender et al., 2025). Research already shows that large language models (LLMs) have the capability for summarization and analysis of clinical...

The rapid rise of generative AI has prompted claims that traditional dictionaries, and perhaps even dictionary use itself, are becoming obsolete. We acknowledge that generative language models are transforming many aspects of information access and language-related tasks. However, we argue that they do not remove the need for high‑quality, human‑curated lexical resources. Generative systems,...

The aim of this poster is to present ALON – Archivio della Lessicografia dell’Otto-Novecento (Archive of the Lexicography of the Nineteenth-Twentieth Century), an online portal dedicated to Italian lexicography. More specifically, this poster focuses on the section of the portal dedicated to bilingual dictionaries, particularly Italian-German ones.
During the 19th and 20th centuries,...

The past few years have seen numerous attempts to make use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in the field of lexicography. One such field is neology – the detection of new words and the preparation of their lexicographic entries for further study (cf. Zheng et al., 2024). When identifying neologisms in large collections of texts with the help of AI, existing neologism data – usage...

Most national terminological dictionaries in Ukraine are not accessible for automatic data processing, which makes it impossible to use them in digital information systems. The objective of the research is to develop a technology for converting specialized dictionary text into a website with a developed user interface.
The object of the study was “Dictionary of Ukrainian biological...

As cultural objects, dictionaries perform several types of cultural work. For example, they have the ability to influence knowledge legitimation: they exercise power as they assign value to knowledge by dictating what knowledge is valuable and trustworthy (the knowledge found in dictionaries) and what is not (the knowledge omitted by dictionaries) (Menagarishvili, 2020). Dictionaries also...

The increasing integration of large language models (LLMs) into (multilingual) specialized communication is challenging traditional distinctions between dictionaries, glossaries and terminology databases. While these resources differ in structure, purpose, theoretical foundations and user groups, LLMs increasingly access their underlying data as machine-readable ‘knowledge’. This paper...

Despite increasing efforts toward inclusive education, Deaf and hard-of-hearing students continue to encounter barriers in STEM education, mainly due to the limited availability of systematically documented scientific terminology in Greek Sign Language (GSL). This lack of accessible terminological resources restricts conceptual understanding, classroom participation and engagement with...

This paper presents the current state of a PhD project on the integration of English adjectives into German. While English nominal and verbal loanwords have undergone thorough investigation, adjectives were often only covered marginally. Some researchers have approached English adjectives more systematically and have identified integration processes and problems, but they mostly examined small...

In terminology planning and terminology work more broadly, the creation and establishment of new terms within specialized domains may appear to be a well-governed practice, guided by widely accepted terminology standards and established procedures across many languages. However, rapid technological development and globalized communication increasingly challenge this model. The continuous...

46. From Field Recordings to an Online Dictionary: A Model for Processing Štokavian Dialect MaterialPerina Vukša Nahod (Institute for the Croatian Language)30/09/2026, 14:00
This poster introduces a multi-modular model for developing an online Croatian dialect dictionary. Although Croatian dialect lexicography advanced significantly in the 20th century (Lisac 2006) and continues to develop in the 21st century, online Croatian dialect dictionaries remain uncommon. Most available resources are digital reproductions of print dictionaries or amateur compilations that...

In the presentation we will introduce the research on applying LLMs to help create definitions for learners of Estonian as a second language. For Estonian, there have been experiments conducted to create general language dictionary definitions with LLMs (see Tuulik et al., 2025). For English, LLM-s are tested for generating learner’s definitions as well (see for example Ide et al., 2026; Rees...

Mastering academic language remains a central challenge across university disciplines, as learners are expected to handle increasingly complex topics, genres, and stance-driven patterns, often with higher stakes for those working in an additional language. In response, corpus linguistics has reshaped lexicography (Rees, 2021) by evidencing language use not only as single lexical units, e.g.,...

As a culturally embedded linguistic category, colour varies across translations of the same source text. This paper examines how colour is encoded diachronically in biblical Hungarian and Georgian, addressing two questions: how colour terms are realised across parallel translations, and what cross-linguistic patterns of lexical and syntactic variation emerge. The analysis draws on a parallel...

Documenting the surge of new lexical items during the COVID-19 pandemic presented a challenge worldwide (Klosa-Kückelhaus & Kernermann, 2024). German Neologisms emerging between 2020 and 2023 were collected (Klosa-Kückelhaus, 2021) and incorporated into a dedicated section of the Neologismenwörterbuch (2006ff.), initially as a simple word list. Each entry includes a brief paraphrase and...

This article discusses an important Icelandic lexicographic work published in the nineteenth century. Dönsk orðabók með íslenzkum þýðingum was compiled and edited by Konráð Gíslason (1808-1891), an Icelandic scholar and language purist. The printed dictionary is described in some detail, with particular attention to its structural characteristics and the ways in which purist ideals shaped...
