Subject: printed resources

This morning I received a new volume of the Dictionary of Flemish
dialects.

Flemish is to be understood in a (correct) narrow sense (Brabantish and
Limburgish are not included, these region groups have their own
dictionary in progress)

This very volume has an even narrower scope though: it only covers the
"coast line" of Northern France, Belgian Flanders and Zeeuws Vlaanderen.

The title:
Woordenboek van de Vlaamse dialecten,
(II) Niet agrarische vaktalen
Aflevering 7: De zeevisser,
(by Roxane Vandenberghe and others - basically from Ghent University)
clothbound, LXXI + 818 pp
ISBN 90-74273-14-9

BEF 1500   EURO 37.18
Distribution "Drukkerij G. Michiels N.V.", Rietmusweg 96, B 3700
Tongeren, Belgium
tel +32-12-23.13.25

Regards,
Roger
