<< review queue entry 59270 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> "wordbook" is a single word (not two words) according to OED, MW and AHD. "dictionary" seems to be better as the first gloss. "wordbook" doesn't seem to be particularly appropriate -- I suspect it was inserted as a literal character-by-character mapping of 辭 + 書 onto a word that does exist in English and whose meaning is in the ballpark. I suggest removing "making dictionaries" -- it's just a childish-sounding definition of "lexicography". |
