Jornadas dos Dicionários 2023


4th edition
Didactic uses of the Dictionary

Lisbon, November 17, 2023
NOVA University Lisbon (on site & on line)

 

The Dictionaries Conference aims to bring together specialists and professionals in the areas of lexicology and lexicography to disseminate and discuss current and relevant themes and lines of research, as well as the presentation of new products and lexicographic resources, focusing on a particular sub-area in each edition.
Under the motto “Didactic Uses of the Dictionary”, in 2023, we invite linguists and language scientists, education specialists and dictionary editors to reflect on the construction, use, and/or function of the dictionary as a didactic instrument and resource.

See the program.
