"Towards new paths in lexicography: Le Dictionnaire des francophones"

This day will be the first scientific event organized by the ReLCo - Réseau de recherches sur le Ressources Lexicales Collaboratives, a CREE-affiliated network concerned with dictionaries, encyclopedias, corpora, and other types of collaboratively constructed resources. The day will be devoted to the Dictionnaire des francophones.

This is an institutional digital collaborative dictionary project, an innovative object in both traditional, differential and collaborative lexicography. Thus, several more general aspects affecting lexicography will be discussed, including data structuring and functionalities, as well as support and possible applications of collaborative dictionaries.

The Dictionnaire des francophones is a project supported by the Délégation générale à la langue française et aux langues de France (Ministry of Culture), in partnership with, in particular, the Organisation internationale de la Francophonie (OIF), the Agence universitaire de la Francophonie and the Institut international pour la francophonie of the Université Jean Moulin Lyon III and the very large Huma-Num-CNRS research infrastructure.

"With 500,000 words and expressions listed from 52 countries and 112 locations, this online dictionary illustrates the variety and richness of the French language" (OIF)
