Comparative-Historical Yeniseian Dictionary
Volume I (A-Ph)
 
 
Edward J. Vajda & Heinrich Werner
 
The present work is a first attempt to create a comparative-historical Yeniseian dictio-nary that is readily accessible to English speakers. It includes not only interpretations by the authors, but also observations and commentaries made previously by others who have published results pertaining to Yeniseian etymology or lexical history. In addition to published lexical data, the authors have also incorporated the results of the latest fieldword on Ket. Dictionary entries include both modern forms attested in a single Yeniseian language as well as reconstructed protoforms representing an older stage of Yeniseian as supported by the extant comparative material. Each proto-form is marked as belonging to one of the following levels:
 
Pre-Proto-Yeniseian (PPY), Proto-Yeniseian (PY), Proto-Keto-Yugh (PKY), Proto-Kotto-Assan (PKA), Proto-Arino-Pumpokol (PAP), Old Ket (OKet), Old Yugh (OYugh). The listing of verb forms in Yeniseian languages presents a special set of problems. Because Yeniseian finite verb forms are build according to a formulaic stem pattern, entries involving finite verbs include the lexical formula used to build the given verb. The agreement patterns and tense-mood classes reflected in the verb formulas are discussed at length in publications by one of the authors (notably Vajda 2001, but also including later publications).

LW/D 82: A Dictionary of the Artificial Language Oz

A Dictionary of the Artificial Language Oz
 
Alan Libert
Newcastle University, Khazar University
 
Oz is an artificial auxiliary language created by Charles Milton Elam. In spite of its name, it was a serious project. It belongs to the a priori group of artificial languages, i.e. it did not take anything from natural languages, as Esperanto did. The only known work on the language is a book by Elam entitled The Case for an A Priori Language, published in 1932, and it is one of the more obscure artificial languages. This book did not include a dictionary or glossary, and so the present dictionary has been created. It includes almost all of the Oz words and morphemes occurring in Elam’s book; in some cases it has been difficult to be sure of the meaning of a item, or whether it is a root or a stem; such facts have been noted. Oz has elaborate systems of terms for colors, chemical elements, and family terms, in spite of the fact that most such terms will rarely be used. There is also a complex system of tenses. This dictionary will give a picture of a highly unusual artificial language.

LW/D 83: Lexique comparé français-ciluba-français des fournitures, équipements

Lexique comparé français-ciluba-français des fournitures, équipements et matériels en usage au bureau
 
Kadima Batumona Mbatwamba
 
Ce lexique comme outil lexicographique, rassemble les terminologies de domaines se rapportant aux « fournitures, équipements et matériels de bureau » ou FEMB en abrégé. Ces FEMB sont, de par leur essence, des objets totalement étrangers aux cultures congolaises ainsi qu’à beaucoup d’autres du tiers monde, mais avec la mondialisation des échanges économiques qui, entre autres, favorise leur importation En République démocratique du Congo (RdC), où le français est officiellement la langue de l’administration, mais où en réalité les langues locales sont des plus utilisées au travail, il s’observe que ces technologies étrangères et s’utilisent tout en étant dénommées dans les langues de leurs concepteurs : français, anglais, russe, portugais, espagnol, etc. !
 
Le maniement de ces technologies d’importation occidentale n’est pas une chose facile pour autant que les terminologies se rapportant aux objets à dénommer sont laborieuses et ce, en même temps que les manuels destinés à l’utilisateur ne sont pas de consultation facile. Ce faisant, l’utilisateur rd-congolais qui maîtrise à peine le français et pas du tout l’anglais en vient à souhaiter de disposer d’un outil lui permettant la maîtrise des termes techniques.
 
Cet outil est ce lexique des FEMB dont l’élaboration est motivée par le souci d’adapter la langue cible (le ciluba, une des quatre langues nationales officielles de la RdC, les trois autres étant : le lingala, le kiswahili et le kikongo) à l’expression de la modernité.
