It is also clearing house of this information. The information should be presented in a dictionary in such a way that it is easily retrievable. The entries in a dictionary should, therefore, be arranged in such a way as to enable the reader to find the information quickly and correctly. It would be impractical to present the entries in a completely haphazard manner. This would "squarely defeat the very purpose of a reference work". (Malkiel 1967, 18) "A good dictionary therefore", as Mary Hass (1967. 41) remarks, "is one in which you can find the information you are looking for preferably in the very first place you look. Nothing could be sillier than the silly assumption, for too commonly encountered, that it is somehow good for the soul of the user if he has to work hard for what he is looking for". 6.8. Nesting: In order to save some space and make the dictionary more compact, the lexicographer uses two devices viz, 1. by reducing space in the entry by contracting the quantum of information in the entry and 2. by referring the entry to some other entry in the dictionary. The former method is called nesting and the latter cross reference. Cross reference has already been discussed. In nesting the lexical units having derivational and semantic relations are brought together. The main item carrying the basic form and meaning and recurring in all the derivative forms is given as the head word and its derivatives and compounds and idioms are nested with it. This is done by using an em dash or a swung dash in place of the recurring morpheme and placing the nested item after it. In compounds and set expressions the nested item is put even before it. Some typographical specification is adopted to indicate it clearly. Usually some other types of letters (Italics or bolder letters) are used for them. The nested entry is called a sub-entry or a run-on. Sometimes the whole derivative is given without a tilde or a dash. e. g. Eng. apple n. (tree with) round fruit with firm, juicy flesh and skin that is red or yellow when the fruit is ripe… 'the ~ of one's eye, 'sb. Or sth dearly loved'. bilateral adj. of, or with two sides ~ly adv. ~is n… -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 hrs (2018-06-28 12:48:02 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Check also here - page 99: https://books.google.com/books?id=oPaEAgAAQBAJ&pg=PA99&lpg=P... |
