Enormous Interlingua dictionary now available (Interlingua-Dutch)

Saturday, October 04, 2008


News from about a week ago: take a look at the size of this dictionary. Huge. It could use some work on the design, but one thing about Interlingua is that it already has a term for just about anything and everything a serious international language needs. It's always a bit disheartening with some languages that have a very good design (Novial for example) but only a few thousand words, while the rest have to be inferenced from the first few thousand. That can take a long time especially when writing in a subject (astronomy for example) that the language has never had written content in before.

Un del dictionarios le plus grande in interlingua ha apparite in duo volumines con plus que 1.000 paginas.
One of the largest dictionaries in Interlingua has appeared in two volumes with more than 1,000 pages.
