Dear lexicographers

I am happy to announce that the New Lakota Dictionary has been finished
and is now being printed. Copies of the dictionary will be available
after July 15 and sample pages can be seen at this address:
http://www.lakhota.org/downloads/pdf/Sample_NLD.pdf

The dictionary can be ordered at www.lakhota.org or at
http://stores.languagepress.com/Detail.bok?no=35

The dictionary was developed using the Linguist's Toolbox (SIL) and is
the result of twenty years of work. There are 20,000 Lakota-English
entries and 11,000 English-Lakota entries, and over 40,000 example
sentences, usage notes and collocations.
The dictionary marks the 3,000 most important words and each entry
provides references to the forms of the word in Dakota dialects.

I wish to thank the SIL programmers for the Linguist's Toolbox as well
as to members of the lexicography list for useful replies to questions I
posted during the past few years and for various hints during numerous
discussions.

Best regards

Jan Ullrich
Lakota Language Consortium
