		A dictionary that attempts to cover as many words from a particular speech community as possible is called a maximizing dictionary (e.g.
		In dictionaries between a language using a non-Roman script and English, entry words in the non-English language may either be printed and sorted in the native order, or romanized and sorted in Roman alphabetical order.

	Defining vocabulary - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A defining vocabulary is a published, stable, and culturally accepted core glossary specifically used by dictionary publishers to standardize their use of simple words to explain complex words, and culture-specific idioms or metaphors.
		It can also be published as a defining dictionary, but the most common use of such dictionaries is to assist in creating new dictionaries.
		The defining vocabulary used by Longmans to define its 4000 most common English language idioms is about 2000 words long.

	Dictionary (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		A dictionary is a list of words with their definitions, a list of characters with their glyphs, or a list of words with corresponding words in other languages.
		Dictionaries of languages with alphabetic and syllabic writing systems list words in alphabetical or some analogous phonetic order.
		Because of the broad use of dictionaries, and their acceptance by many as language authorities, their treatment of the language does affect usage to some degree, even the most descriptive dictionaries providing conservative continuity.

		In addition, the learner’s dictionary separates – with small bullets – syllables in the headwords (though inconsistently!?), while the current dictionary only shows syllabication –with hyphens – in the pronunciation, which directly follows all headwords that are root words.
		In both dictionaries, the senses follow the part of speech and pronunciation, and they are numbered in order of frequency of use.
		The current dictionary, however, in its succinctness, lack of learner-designed features, and focus on British English is clearly ideal for a native speaker or advanced learner of British English, though others proficient in English could find it useful.

	Dictionary
		Most modern dictionaries are descriptive, although many, such as the American Heritage dictionaries make extensive efforts to provide information on the best usage, and almost all dictionaries provide some information on words considered erroneous, vulgar, or easily confused.
		Noah Webster's dictionary was published by the G&C Merriam Company of Springfield, Massachusetts which still publishes Merriam-Webster dictionaries, but the term Webster's is considered generic and can be used by any dictionary.
		This dictionary uses Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) and WordNet as its sources and is being developed collaboratively under the terms of the GNU General Public License.

	SUMMARY OF PROCEDURES (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		A defining passage is an excerpt that contains information that users of the dictionary can read to get some understanding of what the term means in the context in which it is being used in that article.
		A defining passage may be an intact excerpt from the text or it may be an assemblage of selected sentences or even sentence fragments, strung together to give an edited account of the term’s usage.
		Since the entire enterprise involves surveying the domain of educational research terminology by locating and reproducing a sample of terms and defining passages, the material missed by the few errors that occurred in translating from the printed page to machine-readable text was judged to be unimportant.

	Relational database system - Patent 4918593 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The present invention solves the problem of defining and correctly updating values in one set of rows which are dependent from the state of another set of rows in the context of a relational data base system which employs a data dictionary to define base tables.
		The means in the data dictionary define the dependence and the dependence reestablishing means respond to the means defining the dependence in the data dictionary by reestablishing the dependence according to the definition whenever a data base operation alters the state of the row.
		Because the data dictionary is used at run time to determine whether one field is dependent on another and what the conditions of the dependence are, the definitions of the dependencies may be changed without changing the code that uses the data base.

	Chapter 3. Native Datatypes
		Dictionary values can be any datatype, including strings, integers, objects, or even other dictionaries.
		And within a single dictionary, the values don't all need to be the same type; you can mix and match as needed.

		The example of the Encarta World English Dictionary may also be misleading, insofar as the development of this dictionary, whilst jointly funded by Microsoft, was entirely directed by Bloomsbury Publishing in London.
		Dictionaries and other lexical data remain a strategic investment for Microsoft, but one that we believe is based on partnership, not exclusion, an opportunity for dictionary publishers and not a threat.
		For English, French and German, Microsoft offers the same dictionaries as in the Microsoft Office 2003 Research Service; for Spanish, the prestigious dictionary of the Real Academia de la Lengua Espanola is included, while for Dutch the dictionary is provided by Het Spectrum, publishers of the Prisma and Kramers dictionary ranges.

		This lack of harmony is especially emphasized by the fact that some of the dictionaries find it necessary to distinguish between capital as used "in commerce" and capital as used "in political economy." For instance: -- 1874, Colange, L., Zell's Popular Encyclopedia, a universal dictionary....
		Among all the dictionaries which have attempted to reflect the popular use of the term "capital," only four have been found which distinguish capital as a "large" stock.
		The dictionaries also supply precedent for so applying the term.(52*) In spite of all the differences between us, verbal or actual, the writings of my three critics follow a common trend of thought away from the partial views of capital which we have inherited from Adam Smith.
