Ernesto Wong García, « DESIGNING A SEMANTIC DICTIONARY OF SPANISH CAUSATIVE VERBS (DIVERCE) », HAL-SHS : linguistique, ID : 10670/1.257sdp
This paper describes and theoretically grounds the design of the lexicographical project Semantic Dictionary of Spanish Causative Verbs (DIVERCE). It expounds the underlying semantic theory and characterizes the dictionary: its general features and target user, the prelexicographical work (lemma selection and semantic analysis, including the treatment given to polysemy), and the lexicographical work, including a description of the database, macrostructure (access routes to information), and microstructure (the entry, the definition, argument structure, and examples). In closing, it considers the importance and usefulness of such a project.
