| Abstract: |
The project WaDokuJT [2013] has developed into the most comprehensive Japanese-German dictionary in regard to covered lemmata
and translation equivalents. The dictionary is used by many users from German speaking countries and from Japan. The project was
designed concentrating on German speaking users who want to read and translate Japanese texts. So, priority is given to a rather
complete coverage of orthographic variations of Japanese headwords on the one side and German translation equivalents on the other
side. Definitions are given only when they are really necessary and only in German language; further, they are as short as possible.
This means that the dictionary project may have certain shortcomings for text production, for Japanese users or for users who need
deeper encyclopedic explanations connected to a certain dictionary headword.
This paper presents an approach how to alleviate such deficiencies by providing hyperlinks or other references to data of other
dictionaries and encyclopedia projects which may contain the information, users are looking for. For this aim, WaDokuJT data refers
especially to open source projects, dictionaries, which aren’t protected by copyright anymore, and collaborating projects, the data of
which can be accessed easily at least in parts. |
