We are delighted to announce that  "Tesouro do léxico patrimonial galego e portugués", a lexical database of the Galician, European Portuguese and Brazilian Portuguese dialect lexicon, can for the first time be searched by users via the internet.

This database makes it easy to query the entire contents of lexicographical and dialect studies which, in some cases, may be difficult for researchers to gain direct access to. Data provided in the sources is structured into variants, headwords, semantic fields and geographical location. Data in text format is supplemented by map representations of each item's geographical distribution.
Search queries can be based on a choice of lexical forms (either variants or headwords), location (Galicia, Portugal or Brazil) or the associated semantic field.

"Tesouro do léxico patrimonial galego e portugués" is a joint initiative by Brazilian, Galician and Portuguese universities coordinated at the Instituto da Lingua Galega (Universidade de Santiago de Compostela). 

The Tesouro is now published online at: http://ilg.usc.es/Tesouro/en

Linguistic Field(s): Language Documentation
                     Lexicography

Subject Language(s): Galician (glg)
                     Portuguese (por)

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
