Komputerowy Slownik Jezyka Polskiego PWN
Description:
PWN's Scientific Publications' first multimedia book - three volumes
of the Polish Language Dictionary and the Dictionary of Foreign
Terms on one CD are now available.
The dictionary is an indespensiblke tool for writers and editors, not to
mention translators. It should also prove very useful for home use. It
is the largest compedium of contemporary Polish. Contains 80,000 entries
including general and specialist vocabulary. It is a prescriptive dictionary,
meaning that it employs linguistic criteria of correctness in settling
even the most detailed vocabulary problems. Dictionaries of foreign terms
record and define difficult words - which are rarely listed by standard
language dictionaries, such as cheironomy, muezzin or chiton. For severals
translations, users will find a handy built-in mechanism for morphological
analyses. All those unable to master Polish declination can find the infinitive
or nominative by typing in any form of the verb or the noun.
The dictionary can be used in Word or WordPerfect for Windows. It simply
adds its icon to those word processors. When editing a text, all the users
have to do in order to obtain correct infinitives is to throw declined
verbs into an icon.
Almost all definition elements are accessible by clicking the mouse. Users
have to point to desired words and click to use suggested abbreviations
or switch to other entries. Users can switch on or off options demonstrating
examples, phraseological connections and proverbs. They casn also use bookmarks
and add their own comments. The two dictionaries can be used separately
or together as a universal, unique dictionary of the Polish language.
On English version of Windows there is no problem with obtaining Polish
characters on screen, unfortunatelly the product does not support Zecer
keyboard driver.
