Jakarta: Pusat Bahasa, 2008 xvi, 1826 hlm.; 21,5 cm ISBN 978-979-689-779-1 BAHASA INDONESIA - KAMUS TIM REDAKSI KAMUS BAHASA INDONESIA Pemimpin Redaksi Dendy Sugono Penyelia Sugiyono Yeyen Maryani Redaksi Pelaksana Ketua Meity Taqdir Qodratillah Anggota Cormentyna Sitanggang, Menuk Hardaniwati Dora Amalia, Teguh Santoso, Adi Budiwiyanto Azhari Dasman Darnis, Dewi Puspita Pembantu Pelaksana Endang Supriatin, Dede Supriadi Delia Saparini, Rini Maryani PRAKATA Satu bahasa besar atau bahasa utama memiliki kamus, tata bahasa, dan uji bahasa yang standar. Kamus memuat khazanah kosakata bahasa yang dapat menjadi lambang atau indikator kemajuan peradaban masyarakat pendukungnya. Demikian pula, bahasa Indonesia memiliki kekayaan kosakata yang memadai sebagai sarana pikir, ekspresi, dan komunikasi di berbagai bidang kehidupan. Kamus Bahasa Indonesia ini merupakan buku rujukan yang memuat khazanah kata bahasa Indonesia. Selain kosakata umum bahasa Indonesia, kamus ini memuat berbagai istilah dari bidang ilmu yang pasti akan sangat bermanfaat bagi pelajar dan mahasiswa. Dibandingkan dengan kamus yang terbit sebelumnya, kamus ini telah mengalami penyempurnaan definisi atau penjelasan lema/sublemanya, penambahan makna (akibat perkembangan pemakaian bahasa), perbaikan penulisan latin untuk nama tumbuhan dan hewan, serta perubahan urutan susunan sublema. Semua itu dilakukan atas dasar masukan dari para pengguna kamus, baik melalui surat, pos-el, telepon, surat kabar/majalah maupun melalui forum atau pertemuan ilmiah. Sublema yang merupakan derivasi dari lema pokok disusun berdasarkan paradigma pembentukan kata, tidak lagi diurutkan berdasarkan abjad. Dengan demikian, sublema petinju ditampilkan di bawah sublema bertinju, sedangkan peninju di bawah meninju dan meninjukan, serta tinjuan yang merupakan hasil meninju diletakkan di bawah peninjuan (perbuatan meninju).
