Bob,

 

I am happy you like the sample pages and hope that you will find the entire
dictionary useful.

The dictionary is currently available only in printed form. 

An electronic version is going to be our next project. We are planning to
record all of the headwords and perhaps all example sentences, and include
the audio on the CD. We already have several native speakers interested in
working on this project. 

For the electronic version, however, we have to solve many issues of parsing
Lakota, because we would like to enable the users to search for any form of
a word, not just for its lemma. Creating such parser will be the more
difficult part of the project. But not less exciting.

Jan,

 

Just looked at the sample pages and it looks terrific!  I'm looking forward
to getting one.  Will it be available on CD so that it can be searched by
machine, or is it to be printed only?  We'll miss you at the roundtable.

 

Best,

 

Bob

Hi, everyone,

and sorry for the late reply to this topic. I have been out of office
for several weeks.
I would love to participate in the dictionary roundtable but am unable
to attend the conference due to my teaching/research schedule in South
Dakota.
I hope the roundtable participants can take a look at the sample pages
from the New Lakota Dictionary and examine them. I would be very happy
to hear any comments and critique. The sample pages are at:
HYPERLINK
"http://www.lakhota.org/downloads/pdf/Sample_NLD.pdf"http://www.lakhota.org/
downloads/pdf/Sample_NLD.pdf

I was going to write a little announcement on the dictionary but I am
glad David did that instead of me. Also, Jim Good Tracks just forwarded
the announcement I wrote for the lexicography list.

With best regards

Jan
