[Lexicog] asking for advice

[Benjamin Barrett]

I think I understand. Using the example of a Spanish->English, is this the
sort of entry you are thinking of (synonyms in parentheses)?
 
alto - 1. tall, high (lofty, giant, big huge). 2. top, upper (peak, crown,
crest, summit, pinnacle). 3. loud, high (sharp, deafening, piercing,
strident, earsplitting, noisy).

It is different from bilingual dictionary because bilingual dictionary just
provides us meaning in another language where as it is just like thesaurus
but it will be in the bilingual form. Bilingual thesaurus will provide
equivalents to the English synonyms.

Well bilingual thesaurus is something, which contains two languages as such
as bilingual dictionary.  And it is useful for translators who deals with
English -Hindi translation.

What is a bilingual thesaurus? It sounds interesting.
 
When I translate, I sometimes use an English monolingual thesaurus to help
me find a more appropriate term, but I've never run across a book such as
you describe.

Dear lexicographers



I am trying to compile a bilingual thesaurus (English-Hindi) which will be
exclusively meant for translators. It is my doctoral research. I would like
to ask you for advice in this area which will guide me in my research and
also advice me bibliographical reference on bilingual thesaurus
