[Lexicog] lexicographic relevance

[rimba ilmu]

Hi there,

One of the lexicographer's problem when they're looking at citations for word or any lexical unit is what kind of information is it important to look for if their dictionary entry is to be as good as possible? Let say a word "fresh'. How  can lexicographers decide what important fact to be recorded about "fresh"?  What are the principled decisions that a theory of lexicographic relevance allows? anyone out there want to share your knowladge on this issue..
