Sprichwörter im Wörterbuch

Abstract

This text aims to contribute to the discussion of the lexicographical treatment of proverbs. Discussed are some selected problem areas that, in terms of proverbs, become evident in planning and preparing dictionaries and comparable linguistic resources. Considerations are based on the partial results of the EU-funded research project SprichWort. In this project, a multilingual proverb database is created and developed.
