| Abstract: |
At the present time, electronic lexicography and corpus linguistics are undergoing a period of fast development, and they are among the most illuminating areas of Applied Linguistics. However, there are no electronic dictionaries of the ‘primeta’ (superstitions, omens and predictions) based on the Russian language. The analysis of existing traditional dictionaries and websites shows that these resources cannot satisfy the demands of the modern reader, and for a variety of reasons. The reasons include: the inconvenience and size of a print dictionary, and poor-quality commentary or explanation throughout all forms. There is clearly a great need to create a convenient electronic dictionary, wherein superstitions are linked with a culturological commentary. This is how the concept of the 'primeta' electronic dictionary arose. Work is currently underway to make this concept become a reality. |
