Required Language(s): English (eng)

Description:

The Oxford Dictionary of African American English (ODAAE) is a landmark
scholarly initiative documenting the lexicon of African American English (AAE)
in a dictionary based on historical principles. The ODAAE will be compiled and
edited by a team of researchers, lexicographers, and editors sponsored and led
by the OED and Harvard University’s Hutchins Center for African and African
American Research. The joint team will apply the depth and rigor of the OED’s
historical methodology specifically to the study of AAE in order to create a
dictionary to further illuminate the history, meaning, and significance of
this body of language. For more information about the ODAAE, see:
https://public.oed.com/oxford-dictionary-of-african-american-english/. 

As an ODAAE lexicographer, you are responsible for revising, editing, and
drafting dictionary entries for African American English words and senses for
publication in ODAAE. You also contribute to the development and refinement of
a lexicographical model for the ODAAE which effectively describes and
communicates the history and development of African American English.
