- ItemDivergensie as ekwivalentverhouding: 'n Vergelykende studie tussen Tweetalige Woordeboek/Bilingual Dictionary en Groot Woordeboek/Major Dictionary(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2002-03) Muller, Annake; Gouws, R. H.; Stellenbosch University. Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. Dept. of Afrikaans and Dutch.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis is aimed at the problems originating from the lack of an adequate lexicographical handling of divergence as an equivalent relation. In this study the method in which divergence is dealt with in bilingual dictionaries is evaluated critically. Tweetalige Woordeboek/Bilingual Dictionary and Groot Woordeboek/ Major Dictionary are taken as the basis for the evaluation. The theoretical component of the lexicography is tested in practice - in the mentioned dictionaries - by evaluating the dictionary entries in terms of sufficient examples. Problems are identified and recommendations given for solving these problems. Subsequently a comparison is made between Tweetalige Woordeboek/Bilingual Dictionary and Groot Woordeboek /Major Dictionary regarding the way data is dealt with as well as their underlying theoretical approach to divergence as equivalent relation. Findings regarding the acceptability of the mentioned are given.
