The lexicographic treatment of conjunctions in a general Croatian dictionary

Luka Vukojević ; Institut za hrvatski jezik i jezikoslovlje, Zagreb

Abstract

In the paper the author tries to anticipate and describe problems opened by the lexicographic treatment of conjunctions, e.g.
-establishing of conjunction entry-word; the abandonment of the principle of single-word entries; multi-word entries
-the lexicographic description of conjunctional, semantic and syntactic characteristics of conjunctions, conjunctions as concretizers and verifiers of semantic and syntactic relations, temporal, modal and aspectual restrictions; distributional restrictions
-conjunctional, conjunctional-adverbial and conjunctional-pronominal homonymy (one or more entry-words)
-the relationship of grammatical and lexico-grammatical conjunctional
units, conjunctions and connectors
-normative (functional and stylistic and normative) values of conjunctions

The author also analyzes the lexicographic treatment of conjunctions in
Croatian and other monolingual dictionaries. In the end he tries to determine the principles and models for the lexicographic treatment of conjunctions in a monolingual dictionary.

Keywords
