PHRASEOLOGY IN VARIOUS TYPES OF CROATIAN DICTIONARIES

Antica Menac ; Hrvatska akademija znanosti i umjetnosti, Zagreb

Abstract

Phraseology, as a specific linguistic stratum, requires a different position and way of processing in the monolingual dictionaries of various types. Its occurrence, too, varies to a greater extent, sometimes being poor or even none (e. g. in the orthographic and orthoepic dictionaries), whereas, in the general descriptive dictionaries, its percentage -as justifiable as possible -within the lexical corpus is yet to be defined. It is only the phraseological dictionaries that ensure the focal point and versatile processing of phraseology. In the writers' dictionaries a routine, otherwise unacceptable in other types of dictionaries, is widely accepted; namely, bringing about the phrasemes with incomplete contents and boundaries, i. e. the author's own phraseological variants. In the dialectological dictionaries the question arises about the principle of phrasemes selection; namely, the mandatory presence of dialectological elements, or just the fact of being used in a dialect, regardless of the presence or absence of dialectological elements.

Grammatical, stylistic, collocation-bound and other types of phraseme processing depend on the very type of the dictionary and its size, as well as on an adequate processing of the lexemes.
