[Lexicog] defining vocabulary

[Hugh Paterson III]

There is a very nice feature in FLeX [http://www.sil.org/computing/fieldworks/flex/] which allows one to import a text (or copy it over to the text field). Then you can select words from the text and it will start building a vocab database. In the Database you can have different fields i.e. pronunciation, part of speech, definition, etc. There are also several export options too.

Besides, for I'm new in this forum, is there any simply-used software that I can use in my new dictionary compiling project? In my country, Indonesia, there's no corpus-based monolingual dictionary yet so far.I plan to list the defining vocabulary by using corpus and hope that will be a pilot project I can offer to my department. Thanks for any information.
