description | In this paper we present the continuous hierarchical ordering of the first
part of the definition of lexemes from the thematic group ‘buildings’ by
analyzing the vertical organization of superordination of concepts in the
lexicographical definition. We demonstrate that the vertical sequence mounts
from a higher level of conceptual categorization, ‘localizer,’ in the form
of complex and simple primitives (PLACE > SPACE [WHERE], SPACE > EXPANSE
[SOMETHING THAT IS (BOUNDLESSLY) SPREADING IN EVERY DIRECTION]) and
descends toward a lower hyperonimic level of ‘buildings’. The suggested
model links meanings systematically, on a micro-level of meaning within the
polysemic structure, and on a macrolevel of meanings of lexemes belonging to
a thematic group/class, which is significant for the descriptive lexicography and for the modeling of semantic description in the electronic
dictionary of the contemporary Serbian language. Such description could
facilitate the cross-referencing of lexemes and advanced search, which is
essential both for linguists and dictionary users.[Project of the Serbian Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development, Grant no. 178009: Lingvistička istraživanja savremenog srpskog jezika i izrada Rečnika srpskohrvatskog književnog i narodnog jezika SANU] |
