A relação entre o léxico e o dicionário

Abstract

Dictionaries have played an important role in the evolutionary development of language history. Althought “dicionário” comes from the Latin word dictionarius, it seems that the first attempt for making dictionaries dates from the third millennium BC , when the Eblaites stored their lexicon in bilingual lists according to fields. The discovery of Ebla´s archives demonstrates that language storage has always been a matter of serious concern. Thus, the purpose of this work is to show how a language is stored in different dictionaries and how useful they can be in the teaching of LSP (language for specific purpose).
