of

>       Ron Moe has a good article on developing dictionaries using Semantic
>       Domains and pulling out the associated words to these domains and
then
>       entering them into a Shoebox database. In a workshop where several
> speakers
>       of the language work together, they stimulate each other and in a 2
> week
>       workshop with 25-30 participants, 12,000 words can be elicited. This
>       article can be read in the SIL's Word and Deed 2.1 which just came
> out.
>       Another source would be the "Outline of Cultural Material" by George
>       Murdock which covers the same type of semantic domains. This can be
> found
>       in Lingualinks Library from SIL. There is a Shoebox database
included
> with
>       these domains and related words.
