Sažetak
Description of sensitive and derogatory vocabulary has always been a challenge for lexicographers and dictionary compilers. As regards content related to social groups (such as ethnic, religious, gender, age groups and the like), the offensiveness of such vocabulary may come directly from its meaning or indirectly from its grounding in stereotypes and prejudices about a certain group. In this paper, the lexicographic presentation of several potentially sensitive words denoting social group members and their attributes in contemporary and historical Croatian dictionaries is analysed in order to:
1. show how the dictionary reflects the world view of its time;
2. explain the development of the lexicographic approach to such content over time;
3. propose adequate solutions to the presentation of such content that could be applied
in a modern, socially responsible dictionary.
