Linguistic Terminology in Klaić’s Dictionary of Foreign Words (Rječnik stranih riječi) and New Dictionary of Foreign Words (Novi rječnik stranih riječi) by Bratoljub Klaić and Školska knjiga

Abstract

The authors compare two dictionaries of foreign words Rječnik stranih riječi (1983) prepared by Željko Klaić, the son of Bratoljub Klaić, and Novi rječnik stranih riječi (2012) the authors of which are Bratoljub Klaić and Školska knjiga. The analysis starts with the structure of dictionary entries marked by terminological labels gram., lingv. and fon. Terminological analysis focuses on sound terms (e.g. alveolar, bilabijal, labiodental, lateral, velar), orthographics terms (e.g. apostrof, interpunkcija) and case terminology as well as terms denoting linguistic schools and approaches (antoponimija, deskriptivna gramatika, generativna gramatika, normativna gramatika, strukturalizam, toponomastika, terminologija). The authors also analyse the terms which have been added to the dictionary of 2012.
