What are the principles according to which lexical data should be
represented in order to form a lexical database that can serve as a
basis for the construction of several different monofunctional
dictionaries? Starting from the notion of lexicographic functions
as defined by Henning Bergenholtz and Sven Tarp, this question is
approached by analysing how current electronic dictionaries and
lexical resource models attempt to satisfy the needs of different
types of users in different usage situations, in order to identify
general requirements on the model for a lexical resource that aims
to be "multifunctional" in the above sense. Based on this analysis,
this book explores the use of formalisms developed in the context
of the semantic web to approach both general and specific
lexicographic questions, in particular the representation of
multi-word expressions and their properties and relations. In doing
so, this book not only addresses several topics which are of
relevance to lexicographers and computational linguists alike, but
also supports its claims by providing a prototypical implementation
of a multifunctional lexical resource using semantic web
formalisms.
