Abstract

Fuertes-Olivera, Pedro A. and Henning Bergenholtz. eds. 2011. E-Lexicography: The Internet, Digital Initiatives and Lexicography. London/New York: Continuum International Publishing Group. ISBN: 978 14 411 2806 5 Reviewed by Koen Kerremans. The internet is becoming an increasingly popular medium for publishing and consulting e-dictionaries (either free or not free of charge). The reason for its popularity is obviously due to the accessibility of this medium. Without much effort, users can e.g. easily find definitions of certain words by feeding a (simple) query like define word X to a search engine. It’s clear that for users who want to quickly acquire a basic understanding of a word, an internet search engine is the best option.
