// Goal: Make traditional resources digital & accessible.
Computational lexicography isn't just about creating books on screens. It serves two distinct masters: Human understanding and Artificial Intelligence.
Offering enhanced accessibility and deeper linguistic analysis for professionals and learners.
Providing standardized, structured data that machines can process and understand.
Lexicographers act as gatekeepers of truth. Accuracy is the crucial element. They verify validity by:
"Ensuring resources reflect the richness and complexity of language."
A dictionary should be a mirror of the whole language, not just common words.
Large collections of written and spoken data are used to capture technical jargon, idioms, dialects, and phrases.
Digital technologies transform the user experience from passive reading to active engagement.
1. What is the primary underlying motive of computational lexicography?
2. What do lexicographers use to ensure "coverage" of a language?
3. Why must lexical information be structured in a standardized way?
