Summary/Abstract: The contribution describes which dictionaries and how they were treated in the Slovenská reč journal throughout its ninety years of existence. The theoretical, methodological and conceptual issues in lexicography that were addressed by the journal in the given time period are also considered. By analyzing the papers published in the journal, the contribution aims to present the history and respectable figures of the Slovak dictionary-making. A great deal of attention, however, is given to explanatory and translational dictionaries of the 20th and 21st centuries, which historically evolved in contact with (and the context of) Czech and Russian (Soviet) schools of lexicography. Special dictionaries that cover lexis according to its functional attribute, the individual parameters of words, or developmental and territorial criteria are also in focus. Limited space is dedicated to corpus linguistics which in close collaboration with computational lexicography delivers material resources needed for the lexicographic work.
