Dictionaries: Difference between revisions

LexBib now contains reference to 8000+ dictionaries imported from the [https://glottolog.org/langdoc Glottolog Bibliography] (items with doctype "Dictionary"). These are represented as LCR (class [[Item:Q4|Q4]]), and their entity data contains information about "[[Property:P122|metalanguage]]" (language the resource has been published) and "[[Property:P56|object language]]" (language(s) described in the dictionary), as listed on Glottolog. In Glottolog, that indexation of LCR with languages has been produced computationally using legacy indexations, item titles, etc., and is not perfect. For bilingual or multilingual dictionaries, the languages represented as "metalanguage" and "object language" are actually a "target language" and/or a "source language". We are ready to start to update these relations manually. Long-term aim is to represent LCR languages, for bilingual or multilingual dictionaries as "source language" and "target language".
