This is an edition of the first dictionary of a Creole language,
compiled in 1767/8, together with a more or less contemporaneous
vocabulary of that same language, the Negerhollands spoken on the
Virgin Islands, under Danish rule at that period. There are more
than 3400 entries, varying greatly in nature and length and ranging
from a simple translation of the respective German lemma to
extended articles containing examples of phraseology and syntax and
also providing metalinguistic commentaries. The dictionary is a
major document of the early stages of a Creole language. The same
is true to a lesser extent of the vocabulary, which displays
obvious Danish influences. Over and above this, the dictionary is
also of outstanding value as a testimony of early 18th century
lexicography in the German-speaking area.
