The aims of this paper are as follows: to provide an outlook on the current state of Translation Studies as an academic discipline, including literary and non-literary approaches; to advocate the need for a terminological revision and up-to-date taxonomisation within Translation Studies, in Polish, English, as well as other major European languages; to describe an ongoing project that may eventually be a small step toward accomplishing the above.

The paper focuses on the use of the dictionaries in the context of French as a foreign language in Poland. We assume, according to the Common European Framework and some other theoretical studies, that a dictionary is not only a learning tool but also a text which implies strategies of use. Consequently we consider that the learners should be provided with full-fledged dictionary skills which would make them able to explore the totality of linguistic and cultural richness of a dictionary. Unfortunately, we can prove that the use of dictionaries (particularly the monolingual ones) is not frequently integrated as a didactic goal in the French handbooks. Eventually, the analysis of 133 students’ surveys highlights some of the shortcomings and deficiencies in their practice of monoligual dictionaries. Their linguistic biographies emphasize the need of teaching advantages and disadvantages of different kinds of dictionaries and the special features of their micro- and macrostructure.

The author analyzed the exclamation entries in Russian and Polish dictionaries. The article aims to present various ways of the dictionary exclamation description exemplifying it by one primary (A! - a!) and one secondary (Боже! - Boże!) exclamations. The paper is to show the shortcomings and propose corrections in lexicographical description of exclamations. Due to the frequency of their use in speech and writing, the author also proposes to increase the number of exclamation entries in explanatory dictionaries. Compilation of a separate exclamation dictionary in both of the analyzed languages is worth considering.

During the Middle Ages not only Latin biblical commentaries were used to understand the Bible, but also monolingual Latin dictionaries focusing on unusual vocabulary. The most popular included Mammotrectus, which was compiled at the beginning of the 14th century by the Italian minorite Giovanni Marchesini and which in the Czech lands during the 15th century acquired Czech translations mostly taken from the second redaction of the Old Czech Bible. This dictionary formed the basis for bilingual Latin‑Czech biblical dictionaries known as Mammotrecti. Nineteen Mammotrecti have been dealt with by two Czech researchers, Bohumil Ryba and Vladimír Kyas. This paper also presents another three Mammotrecti from the 15th century: a Latin‑Czech local Mammotrect on the biblical prologues, written on the front and back inside covers of a manuscript at the St Vitus Metropolitan Chapter library under the administration of the Prague Castle Archive (shelf no. B 2/1), a Latin‑Czech local Mammotrect from the manuscript of the former St James parish library in Brno (City of Brno Archive, St James Library shelf no. 34/42), which highlights the translation of difficult words from the New Testament, and a Latin‑Czech local Mammotrect on pericopes from the Gospels and the Epistles based on the church year from a manuscript housed in the monasterial library in Schlägl, Austria (shelf no. Cpl. 203).

The “Abrogans” is a Latin-German dictionary that was written in the middle of the 8th century. Among dictionary researchers there is a discussion if the “Abrogans” can be awarded the title “oldest German dictionary”. There are, however, conclusive criteria for this award which are presented and discussed in this essay.

The article describes specific features of dictionaries of endangered languages from the perspective of their user. Dictionaries of the Saami language – the language of the indigenous minority of the North – are used to describe the anthropocentric, cognitive and pragmatic approach to lexicographical description of culture. The article shows that the focus on the dictionary user becomes especially critical for the endangered languages. It proves that the purpose of such dictionaries is not only to preserve the knowledge that the speakers of the endangered language and bearers of the culture still keep, but also to revitalize this knowledge. The article states that contemporary lexicography must consider several factors for making an endangered language dictionary: the present state of the language in the language community and the scope of background knowledge of a language speaker that represents everyday level of the world cognition by indigenous minority. The article shows that the most relevant type of dictionary for the endangered languages is both a learner’s dictionary and a linguoculturological dictionary (active type). We emphasize that on the one hand the Saami dictionaries describe a culture that is often unknown even to most Saami culture bearers and on the other hand, the dictionaries are also intended for Saami who have no command of the native language. The peculiarities of the relevant dictionary comprise the fact that alongside the translation in the basic part of the dictionary there is a culturological commentary that as fully as possible reflects the knowledge of language speakers.

The article presents the history of the lexeme słownik (dictionary) in Polish lexicography. The considerations concern the basic meaning of a word, i.e. the definition of an ordered set of words in a language. The Polish lexicographic history of słownik begins in the 17th century in Grzegorz Knapski’s Tezaurus and continues uninterruptedly to this day.

A regional variety of the Polish language of the north-eastern borderland in both oral and written forms has been functioning in Belarus, Lithuania and Latvia (former Polish Livonia) for several centuries. In 2000, The Team for Research on the Polish Language of the North-Eastern Borderland of the Institute of Slavic Studies of PAS came up with an idea of creating A Dictionary of oral Polish language of the north-eastern borderland. First, publications containing patterns of the Polish language, credibly recorded, were collected. There were more and more new studies, and the material was enriched with many new lexemes as well as their new variants or better exemplifications. Therefore, the lexical collection continued and was completed in 2012. At the same time the team researchers carried out excerpting from earlier texts, choosing examples, searching for parallel forms of lexemes, blending the material in dictionary units, i.e. establishing the form of a dictionary entry. In this way the corpus of the dictionary was written, following a formula created by the team. The article presents methodology of creating the Dictionary, its material basis, short description of lexical items included and the content of an entry.

Regionalna odmiana polszczyzny północnokresowej w postaci języka mówionego i pisanego funkcjonowała na obszarze Białorusi, Litwy i Łotwy (dawne Inflanty Polskie) od kilku wieków. W roku 2000 w Zespole Badań Polszczyzny Północnokresowej IS PAN powstał pomysł opracowania Słownika mówionej polszczyzny północnokresowej. Przez pierwsze lata wyszukiwano i gromadzono publikacje zawierające zarejestrowane w sposób wiarygodny wzorce mowy polskiej na interesującym nas terenie. Nowych opracowań stale przybywało, materiał powiększał się o nowe leksemy lub ich nowe postaci czy lepszą egzemplifikację. Dlatego też uzupełnianie zbioru leksykalnego zamknięto datą publikacji wydanych w roku 2012. Równolegle z uzupełnieniami pochodzącymi z nowo pojawiających się prac prowadzono ekscerpcję z tekstów wcześniejszych, dobór przykładów, wyszukiwanie paralelnych postaci leksemów i scalanie materiałów w jednostki słownikowe, czyli ustalanie postaci hasła. W ten sposób powstał korpus Słownika, który opracowywano według ułożonej przez zespół formuły. Artykuł przedstawia metodologię tworzenia Słownika, jego podstawę materiałową, krótką charakterystykę leksyki, którą zawiera oraz zawartość artykułu hasłowego.

In English, there exist several terms describing the interlingual homonymy – a phenomenon which I describe in my paper, referring to Belarusian and Polish language. Among these terms, one can indicate: (translator’s/ slavist’s) false friends, false cognates, misleading words (of foreign origin), deceptive words, deceptive cognates or interlinguistic lexical homonymy. The paper includes a review of a few important Polish-Belarusian dictionaries and describes a project of Belarusian-Polish dictionary of translator’s false friends. So far, such a publication has not been worked up. It is important to elaborate a dictionary of this type, including numerous examples. It is needed not only to students and teachers, but also to all those who use Belarusian and Polish in their everyday life (journalists, businessmen, politicians etc.).

The aim of this paper is to present the semantic history of the verb zrodzić (się) in the Polish language against other names describing the act of giving birth or being born, most of which have a common root, e.g. rodzić (się), porodzić (się), narodzić (się), urodzić (się). It turns out that despite the fact that nowadays the discussed word is not a synonymous equivalent of either rodzić (się) or urodzić (się), it can still be found in the living speech in this meaning (e.g. zradzać potomstwo (to give birth to off spring)). Lexicographic sources document the characterised verb in one content only, cf. zrodzić ‘to originate something; to cause, create, induce’, zrodzić się ‘to be originated, to result, to arise from something; to come into being’ (e.g. konflikt, pomysł zrodził się (a conflict, idea was born); idea, inicjatywa zrodziła się (an idea, initiative was born)). The archaic content of the title verb fossilised in texts of prayers and in phraseology.

The aim of the presented paper is to discuss the differences between three modern pronunciation dictionaries of the German language: Großes Wörterbuch der deutschen Aussprache (1982), DUDEN Aussprachewörterbuch. Wörterbuch der deutschen Standardaussprache (2000) and Deutsches Aussprachewörterbuch (2009). To start with, their formal, namely editorial characteristics and the structure of the index are analyzed. Furthermore, due attention is paid to the criteria of lexical material selection.

It goes without saying that the current life is reflected in the lexicographical works and that they therefore have a documentary character of the times in which they were created. This concerns the content, v. a. definitions and examples that come together to form a picture of specific epochs. A special component of this picture are also lemmas that are derived from country names, since information about the respective people can be found in such lemma entries. How extensive are such dictionary articles and what information they contain are the goals of the analysis of adjectives derived from two country names: deutsch/niemiecki and polish/polski in biscopal dictionaries for the German and Polish language pair. Both meanings and examples in the dictionary entries are subject to analysis. The aim is to uncover similarities and differences and to answer the question of whether the adjectives derived from the country names contain information about the respective people in their lexicographical description. The contribution is also an attempt to create templates for the creation of the dictionary entries of the analyzed origin adjectives. The analysis shows that the lemma articles are not particularly developed around the named adjectives of origin and only contain basic information. On the basis of the analysis, therefore, it is argued that such lemma articles should be further developed by, inter alia, adding more information which would better characterize the national character. The analysis can thus make a contribution to the dictionary production – design of the dictionary articles.

When the French Revolution begins, nobody seems to be prepared for such a political and social rupture. Language first tries to adapt to the changing conditions — new words appear, which is a necessity of the moment, to reflect new realities as well as to build a national community based on the same new values and symbols. At the beginning these words remain largely unknown or do not understand exactly what all the politicians debate about. Some old terms also change their conventional signification. A number of dictionaries are edited then to explain those new words to the people, as the revolutionary authorities soon realize that this must become a priority. These reerence books show nevertheless a subjective vision of the Revolution. The aim of this article is to recount the narration of those dictionaries in, of course, a very limited perspective.

Polish students often have problems identifying the contexts in which English epistemic adverbs such as arguably, conceivably, presumably can be used because their uses and functions tend to be culture- and language specific. In consequence, their repertoire of English epistemic adverbs is rather narrow. The aim of this paper is to establish whether the definitions offered by commonly used dictionaries are helpful in learning the meanings and uses of English epistemics. It demonstrates that while the meanings of epistemic verbs and adjectives are usually defined at length, the meanings of the corresponding adverbs are often described very briefly or even omitted.

The purpose of this paper is to reconstruct the understanding of the concept of democracy (Demokratie) in German by means of a cognitive definition developed and operationalized on the grounds of the analyses of the “Lublin School of Ethnolinguistics”. This type of definition is aimed at recreating the “cognitive structure” of the concept by giving all its linguistically and culturally relevant, stabilized and fixed features. Three types of sources were used as the material basis: dictionary, survey and text (including corpus), which were treated “separatively”. The synthetic cognitive definition of the Demokratie concept included features that could be focused around the following facets: [hyperonyms], [opposites], [collections], [social attributes], [political attributes], [ethical attributes], [economic attributes].

This article analyses semantic structures of verbs of movement in Azerbaijani and Polish languages in currently available dictionaries.  Fuzziness becomes clearly visible in differentiating various sememes in the structure of the content of the words. In bilingual dictionaries  right, decal part periodically copies the left. Thus, units of the second language are described under the influence of the units of the first language. Comparison of verbs of movement in Azerbaijani and Polish languages shows that these verbs disproportionately affect asymmetry, but in Azerbaijani language it is conveyed more vividly. In both languages the basic sememe  gives rise to metaphorical conceptualization and engagement in phrase formation based on the integration of a natural movement form. Analysis of the existing dictionaries indicates that the semantic structure of the verbs of movement1 is not always accurately revealed in the process of lexicographic description. Consequently, one of the directions of an exploratory research should be aimed at identifying discrepancies, their explanation and motivation of the proposed correction. In this article we’ll review an expression of sememe “crawl” in Azerbaijani and Polish languages.
