  • A Reflection on the Definition of Lexical Entries in the English-Isizulu Dictionary for Learners
    A Reflection on the Definition of Lexical Entries in the English-isiZulu dictionary for learners Professor Cynthia Danisile Ntuli University of South Africa [email protected] Professor Nina Mollema University of South Africa [email protected] Abstract The writing and publishing of children’s or learners’ dictionaries especially in one of the indigenous South African languages is a genre that has been neglected by the majority of lexicographers and publishers. Following the Pan South African Language Board’s (PanSALB) vision of promoting multilingualism in South Africa by the development and equal use of all official languages, the authors of this article believed that the writing and publishing of young and novice learners’ dictionaries in an indigenous African language would advance this goal. The need for a learners’ dictionary was especially noticeable during the teaching of a Short Course in Basic Communication in isiZulu. Research conducted here revealed that the lexicographic user needs were not provided for as the dictionaries available to these learners were cumbersome and confusing. All learners of a first, second or third language should have access to an uncomplicated, user-friendly dictionary in order to master their acquisition of language. With this aim in mind, the authors compiled an English/isiZulu dictionary of about 3000 lexical items containing illustrative material, cultural explanations and pronunciation guidance. The meaning descriptions of the selected contemporary words are straightforward and comprehensible, and applied in plain sentences taken from everyday conversations which bestow upon the user the opportunity to gain a more practical vocabulary. The intended target users of the dictionary are children and second- language learners acquiring the isiZulu vocabulary as a communicative tool.

  • Introducing a New Lexicographical Model: Alphaconceptual+
    http://lexikos.journals.ac.za Introducing a New Lexicographical Model: AlphaConceptual+ (and How it Could Be Applied to Dictionaries for Luganda) Deo Kawalya, KongoKing Research Group, Department of Languages and Cultures, Ghent University, Ghent, Belgium; and School of Languages, Literature and Communication, Makerere University, Kampala, Uganda ([email protected]) and Gilles-Maurice de Schryver, KongoKing Research Group, Department of Languages and Cultures, Ghent University, Ghent, Belgium; and Department of African Languages, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, South Africa ([email protected]) Abstract: In this article we explore the possibility of amalgamating the semasiological (i.e. alphabetical), onomasiological (i.e. conceptual) and visual approaches to dictionary compilation, here termed an alphaconceptual+ (i.e. alphaconceptual 'plus') dictionary, using Luganda as a brief case study. Such a dictionary would combine the strong points of alphabetical and conceptual lexi- cography, with all entries also linked to relevant picture plates. In Section 1 we expound on the his- tory of Luganda lexicography, highlighting the different types of dictionaries in the language since the early 1900s. Section 2 is an exposition of semasiological and onomasiological lexicography. In Sections 3 and 4 we study the actual dictionary market and scholarly lexicographic literature, in Africa and the rest of the world respectively. In Section 5 a case for language-independent alpha- conceptual+ lexicography is argued, and its proposed compilation approach is sketched out in Sec- tion 6, followed by the conclusion in Section 7.

  • 5. Assessing Carl Strehlow's Dictionary As Linguistic
    5 Assessing Carl Strehlow’s dictionary as linguistic description: Present value and future potential John Henderson Introduction The extent and quality of Carl Strehlow’s comparative dictionary makes it an extraordinary work for its time, and in some ways it remains so by current standards. The sheer number of entries—around 7,600—is impressive, and for its time it demonstrates a reasonably sophisticated attempt to characterise meanings. This chapter primarily considers the dictionary as a work of language description—in terms of the analytical concepts of linguistics and the methods of modern lexicography. Understanding the value and limitations of Strehlow’s dictionary in these ways provides an appreciation of his achievements in the dictionary, its place in relation to other current Aranda1 and Luritja language resources, and perhaps most importantly its potential contribution to new resources for these languages. 1 Strehlow’s spelling ‘Aranda’ is used in this chapter, except where it is necessary to distinguish the two modern orthographies of Western Aranda in recent published works. 63 CARL STREHLOW’S 1909 ComparatiVE Heritage Dictionary The first section gives a brief overview of the nature of the dictionary. It considers the context from which the dictionary arose, its contribution to more recent work, and the languages that are represented in it. The next section looks at the basic organisation of information into entries in the dictionary. The following sections then focus in detail on the important grammatical information in different types of entries, and the strategies for characterising meaning. The representation of Aranda sounds in the dictionary is discussed here only as it relates to lexicographical and grammatical matters.

  • The Monolingual Lusoga Dictionary Faced with Demands from a New
    http://lexikos.journals.ac.za doi: 10.5788/20-0-146 The Monolingual Lusoga Dictionary Faced with Demands from a New User Category Minah Nabirye, Department of African Languages and Cultures, Ghent University, Belgium; Institute of Languages, Makerere University, Kampala, Uganda; and Menha Publishers, Kampala, Uganda ([email protected]), and Gilles-Maurice de Schryver, Department of African Languages and Cultures, Ghent University, Belgium; Xhosa Department, University of the Western Cape, Bellville, South Africa; and TshwaneDJe HLT, Stellenbosch, South Africa ([email protected]) Abstract: In this article, a case is presented of an existing dictionary that is aimed at users with a minimum of primary 7 education, now faced with demands from users in primary 1–3. The rea- son for this demand is the result of the fact that Lusoga is currently being implemented as a medium of instruction in Uganda, in an environment where there is hardly any literature to serve the intended purpose. A review of the existing literature in and on Lusoga shows that the mono- lingual Lusoga dictionary — Eiwanika ly'Olusoga (WSG) — is the only reference work with essential information, in Lusoga, that can initiate the teaching of Lusoga at the elementary level. Although the information in the WSG may fit the purpose at hand, that information is mainly presented as a summary, with statements of conclusions only. Explanations to ease its access to the new user are thus missing. Findings from a pilot study conducted by the National Curriculum Development Centre on the implementation of the teaching of Lusoga reveal that the new user is not only the primary 1–3 pupil, but also the teacher who will need to instruct that pupil.
