Lexicographic Practice In Tamil

Study on Tamil lexicography and dictionaries.

Lexicographica. Series Maior features monographs and edited volumes on the topics of lexicography and meta-lexicography. Works from the broader domain of lexicology are also included, provided they strengthen the theoretical, methodological and empirical basis of lexicography and meta-lexicography. The almost 150 books published in the series since its founding in 1984 clearly reflect the main themes and developments of the field. The publications focus on aspects of lexicography such as micro- and macrostructure, typology, history of the discipline, and application-oriented lexicographical documentation.

Dictionaries are among the most frequently consulted books, yet we know remarkably little about them. This professional handbook and easy-to-use reference work provides an up-to-date and forward-looking survey of lexicography.
