| Abstract: |
This paper discusses how cognitive aspects can be incorporated into lexicographic meaning
descriptions based on corpus-driven analysis. The new German Online dictionary "Paronyme
- Dynamisch im Kontrast" is concerned with easily confused words such as effektiv/effizient,
sensibel/sensitiv. It is currently in the process of being developed and it aims at adopting a
more conceptual and encyclopaedic approach to meaning. Contrastive entries emphasise
usage, comparing conceptual categories and indicating the mapping of knowledge. Adaptable
access to lexicographic details offers different perspectives on information, and authentic
examples reflect prototypical structures.
Some of the cognitive features are demonstrated with the help of examples. Firstly, I will
outline how patterns of usage imply conceptual categories as central ideas instead of
sufficiently logical criteria of semantic distinction. In this way, linguistic findings correlate
better with how users conceptualise language. Secondly, it is pointed out how collocates are
family members and fillers in contexts. Thirdly, I will demonstrate how contextual structure
and function are included by summarising referential information. Details are drawn from
corpus data; they are usage-based patterns illustrating conversational interaction and
semantic negotiation in contemporary public discourse. Finally, I will show flexible
consultation routines where the focus on structural knowledge changes. |
