The first few works discussed in the following are called "orthographic" dictionaries, but they also contain countless entries on pronunciation, grammar, meaning, and stylistics.
Only in later reprints, which were not even differentiated or identified as such at first, can a continually increasing convergence with the new Duden be traced, as evidenced by the erroneous interpretation that "wiedersehen" and a dozen similar word formations ought now to be separated ("wieder sehen").

 Filing, filtering, and the first few found   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The consequence is that the first few records displayed can be expected to be the basis upon which the user will decide whether to display more, modify the search, attempt a new, different search, or abandon searching (Bates 1984, Berger 1992).
Yet these are the first few found by a simple, typical search in an online catalog of standard design.
Again, with this second pair of lists, the difference between the first, conventional ordering and the second, filtered ordering of the same results of the same subject search is remarkable.

 Feeding For the First Few Days Home - PetPlace.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Whether you get the new pup from a breeder or from a shelter or pound, it is a good idea to find out what the pup is eating there so that you can continue on the same nutritional theme, at least for the first few days.
Pups that are around eight weeks old should probably be fed three or four times a day at first though the frequency can be reduced to three times a day by 12 weeks and to twice daily by 16 weeks of age.
Feeding a little and often is a good practice because it permits the owner to observe the puppy eating several times a day and thus to note its eating habits.
