| Abstract: |
Online bilingual dictionaries are specific products, different from printed dictionaries. Coverage is not the only criterion to determine dictionary quality. Parameters as the origin of the web page, user-specificity, access control, security elements, degree of hypertextuality, permeability, interaction, adaptation to lexicographical functions, access system to data, etc. are also important for describing online dictionaries. This paper proposes a selection of main features of online bilingual dictionaries, according to lexicographical and digital parameters, and includes examples from online specialized bilingual English-Spanish dictionaries. |
