| Abstract: |
The aim of this paper is to describe the process of development of software for the Comprehensive English-Georgian Online Dictionary, posted on the Internet in 2010. The Dictionary engine is built on PHP/MySQL platform and combines three major branches: user interface, administrative interface and billing system, thus making it an integrated and dynamic resource. User functionalities include: bidirectional search; auto suggestions; auto corrections; online payments, etc. The administrative interface of the Dictionary holds a number of administrative functionalities, such as: dictionary vocabulary management functionalities; generation and conversion tools necessary for editors; user registration management functionalities, etc.
The Online Dictionary databases were generated from the DOC files which contained raw text data: words, grammatical characteristics of words, pronunciations and descriptions, altogether and separated by spaces just as in any sentence. After thorough analysis and testing, a special converter was written that would automatically analyze and separate raw data input into separate rows and fields. Our experience of transformation of the DOC files into a modern online resource may be interesting for the e-lexicography community. This paper will also discuss some other applications which are under development at the Lexicographic Centre. |
