Thanks to all of you who responded to this inquiry. I didn’t know picture
dictionaries were so popular.

Subject: [Lexicog] visual dictionaries

 

Has anyone produced a visual dictionary? There are several in English (and I
suppose other major languages). I’m interested in examples for minority
languages.

 

A visual dictionary would be composed of pictures with labels. A page might
contain numerous pictures of animals with each animal labeled in the
vernacular (and perhaps the national language). Another page might contain a
large picture of a house with each part labeled. If anyone knows of a
dictionary that has employed this type of format, I would appreciate knowing
how to obtain a copy.

 

Thanks,

Ron Moe
