The effects of using chronologization in research on the lexicographic description of borrowed lexis (based on the material of the 19th century Dokładny słownik języka polskiego i ruskiego)

Summary/Abstract: The authors analysed foreign words (starting with the letter M) used as equivalents of Russian lexis in an 1877 Russian-Polish dictionary. They examined 23 translations that included a description of the meaning, unnecessary in a translation dictionary, and 23 translations without such a description. They searched digitised col- lections, establishing the dates the surveyed items first appeared in use, as well as the dates and number of subsequent occurrences up to 1877. They showed that the descriptions were usually applied to difficult, neo- logical lexis of limited range and poor dissemination, usually not reflected in Linde’s dictionary. The items under study probably did not belong to the editor’s active vocabulary either, as he omitted them from the Polish-Russian part of the dictionary under study.
