About the purpose of dictionaries

The Russian language is extremely diverse, but not structured - it allows many liberties both in the construction of sentences and in the use of certain word forms. If they say “put it on the table,” then the meaning will still remain clear, even though the verb “lay” itself does not exist. There are enough such assumptions in the language, but if their number exceeded the number of existing rules, then the interlocutors would cease to understand what they were saying to each other.

To maintain the formal structure of a language, there are linguistic norms that are taught in school, and which are constantly transformed - they are not ossified formulas. But how to maintain order in the words themselves? How do you find out what letter is written in a word, what language it came from, where the emphasis is placed in it, in what century it was used and what it means? For this purpose, a wide variety of dictionaries are used, the authors of which carry out enormous work on processing huge amounts of information.

It is the dictionaries that contain all the necessary, in the opinion of the author, information about a certain group of words or their combinations. For example, you can find collections of ready-made rhymes, organized according to the principle of a dictionary, and even thesauri of a specific professional or scientific field - philosophical, biological, architectural, poetry and many other narrowly focused dictionaries.

Basic division of dictionaries

The main rule of classification by type of dictionaries is the subject they talk about. Thus, all such collections can be divided:

• To linguistic ones. It tells about the variety of language structures, its norms and their use, and also provides recommendations for people whose profession is related to philology and linguistics. Thus, the subject of linguistic dictionaries is specifically the words themselves and the norms of the language.
• To encyclopedic ones. These are dictionaries about the reality around us, in which you can find out what “passionarity” is, and “wave-particle dualism” if the knowledge of the school curriculum has disappeared, or something simpler, but necessary at the moment. With the advent of the global network, searching for the meanings of concepts in dictionaries has become a habit only among older people, while the modern generation is unlikely to even take on, say, the 80-volume encyclopedic dictionary of Brockhaus and Efron. But although search speed is a disadvantage of printed publications, there are electronic versions of them, where you can use the usual “find” function, like an Internet browser. In addition, all articles in encyclopedias are written by experts in their field, so you can be confident in this information.

Among linguistic dictionaries, explanatory dictionaries are considered dominant - those in which the meanings of certain words of a given language are recorded. Of course, there is no dictionary (and it is unlikely that one will appear) in which all the words existing in a particular language for this time period would be recorded, since every day new concepts arise in the language and constant transformations occur. However, the established and most used words are always recorded by major lexicographers.

About the meaning of words

The problematic question of any explanatory dictionary: will the meaning of the word that is recorded in the collection be constant? To preface the following; as much as yes, as much as no.

If you say the word “table” to two people, will they imagine the same object? Of course not, for each of them this mental table will have those characteristics and features that come from the prerequisites of the subject’s character. The first of them, for example, will present a wooden carved table, and the second - a factory-made plastic one, which to some extent allows us to include a psychological approach here and judge the character of these people - neurolinguistics, but we won’t go into that.

As it turned out from the example, the meaning of the word “table” for two people will be somewhat different, although both people will imagine a certain object with legs on which something can be placed, called in society a “table” (although the person himself may call it otherwise). This suggests that one should distinguish between a concept - the semantic essence of an object or phenomenon of the surrounding reality - and a word - a name, a linguistic designation of a concept. It is important to understand that behind any word there is some concept, but not all concepts that exist in the world have their own verbal form. The famous Austrian philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein devoted many works to the problem of the discrepancy between the meaning of the word itself and the true concept that a person puts into it.

What influences the formation of the meaning of a word?

• Subject's experience. If a person has never encountered, for example, lizards, then what will he imagine when he hears the phrase “Komodo dragon”? Very likely, some kind of unprecedented living creature (possibly an insect) living in the chest of drawers. In any case, whatever idea arises in the head of a subject who is new to the subject (concept), which is denoted by the word he hears (in this case, “lizard”), it will be based only on the experience gained. A related example: “Komodo” is consonant with “chest of drawers”, and “monitor lizard” with “ram”, which is why the above-described interpretation of an unknown concept can appear, based on already acquired knowledge and drawing parallels between the known and the unknown. But this is just one (the most superficial) of millions of possible interpretations of this word alone.
• Context. Often a person cannot recognize written irony, although he can easily distinguish it during oral conversation. To understand whether the interlocutor assumes a direct meaning of words in his phrase or a figurative one, additional information is required, which during oral conversation is taken from non-verbal actions: body position, speed of pronouncing words, gaze, grin, etc. This additional information is called nonverbal context. During a written conversation, a person cannot use this data, which greatly complicates the problem of correctly interpreting the words of the interlocutor, so he is forced to rely only on the verbal (verbal) context - on previously occurring situations and previously written messages. Exactly the same verbal context can be any scientific or artistic work or field of knowledge, only within the framework of which a given word has a strictly defined concept. For example, the word “light” in general means the absence of darkness, while for a physicist “light” will mean photons and waves (the same dualism). Thus, the meaning of a word can change depending on the context in which it is presented.

A well-known interesting example: the word “facade” is recorded in explanatory dictionaries as “the front side of the building,” but you can often hear the expression “side facade” or even “rear facade.” From the point of view of the lexicographer who compiled the dictionary, everything is correct: face from French means face, so only the front part of the building should be called that. But if the person who heard this word is not familiar with its etymology, then such an erroneous combination is natural, because of which, although incorrect, new meanings of words arise, gradually displacing the old ones: facade as the front part of a building - to the facade as just any side of the structure.

So, the answer to the question described above: the authors of significant explanatory dictionaries try to fix words with already established meanings, so in most cases these words will actually have the meaning that is indicated in the dictionary; but sometimes, for the reasons described above, the meaning given in the dictionary may diverge from the meaning that the speaker puts into this word.

Main types of dictionaries

There are a great variety of different dictionaries that are used to record all kinds of word forms and constructions of the language: from the correct spelling of words (spelling) to their origin (etymology) and the correct combination with other forms of words (combination dictionary). The main types of dictionaries, which are most often used not only by philologists and linguists, but also by ordinary people, are:

• Orthographic dictionary. Indicates the correct spelling of the word and its possible forms. It also notes complex spellings that you just need to remember so as not to make mistakes.
• Pronouncing dictionary. It fixes the norms of correct stress for the modern state of the language. After all, earlier - in the 19th century - the word “music” was correctly pronounced with the emphasis on the second syllable, and the version known to us now with the emphasis on the first appeared only at the beginning of the 20th century.
• Dictionary. It is there that the meanings of all the most frequently used words are indicated, taking into account temporary changes in meaning. It is important that they present the general meaning of words, and if you need to know a more narrowly focused definition, you can find it in the thesaurus of a specific field of knowledge.
• Foreign dictionary. Here parallels are drawn between the definitions of words in different languages. In other words, in a foreign dictionary you can find analogues of words in different languages: dog - dog, etc. Interestingly, there are not only direct translations of words, but even analogues of entire phraseological units: for example, a Russian phraseological unit on the edge of a knife will sound like walking on thin ice.
• Synonym dictionary. It allows you to select the desired synonym for a word, for example, if you need to find a euphemism. Most of these collections have been completely transferred to electronic format.
• Dictionary of archaisms and historicisms. Historicisms have completely left our lexicon due to the exclusion of the object or concept that they denoted from everyday life (for example, barge hauler). Archaisms are simply very outdated words, which are nevertheless used in poetic and church speech (for example, lanits, pylya, right hand). Collections of these groups of words are necessary for a correct understanding of old texts and cultural enrichment.
• Phrasebook. It records the bulk of phraseological units found in the language. Basically, it is used only to expand vocabulary and improve the skill of concisely expressing thoughts.
• Dictionary of neologisms. It collects all the words that have recently entered the language. For example, 30 years ago the word “computer” could be considered a neologism in the Russian language, but now it has long lost this status. As an example of modern neologisms, we can recall the word “hype”.

It is impossible for a literate person to do without a dictionary, since language is as dynamic as the life around it. Nowadays it is no longer necessary to have printed editions of spelling or explanatory collections, much less huge encyclopedias, in order to be enlightened. It is enough to find the electronic version of an authoritative dictionary to find out the necessary information. Be literate - don’t disdain dictionaries!
