第六版《现代汉语词典》古语词释义指瑕

The Defect of Archaism Interpretation in Modern Chinese Dictionary(6th edition)

《现代汉语词典》是中国目前应用最广泛、最权威的中型语文工具书,具有收词精当、训释准确等优点。修订后的第六版较之原版有了很多改进,但在古语词释义方面依然存在义项分合不当、漏收义项、释义不确等问题。对此,辞书编纂者除提升自身的训诂学修养、利用训诂学的研究成果外,在释义中还应注意词语古今意义的差异、古语词泛指与特指的区别以及词义的传承性、系统性等问题。

Modem Chinese Dictionary is the most widely used, the most authoritative medium language reference books in our country at present, with the advantages of appropriate collected vocabulary, accurate definition, and so on. The revised 6th edition made a greater improvement than the original, but there are still some question, such as inappropriate seted up lexical items, omited meanings and imprecise definition in the archaism interpretation. Thus, in the Archaism Interpretation, except to raise lexicographers＇ culture and use the research achievement in exegesis of ancient texts, lexicographers should also pay attention to the difference of words significance between ancient and modem, the difference between be used in special sense and in general sense, and heredity, systematization of meaning, etc.
