The King Salman Global Academy for the Arabic Language (KSAA) launched, on Thursday, a pathway called “Creating Digital Dictionaries” pathway. It aims to empower lexicographers with modern technologies used in creating modern digital dictionaries, translating digital content into Arabic and training the use of modern standards followed in lexicography.
The launch of this pathway aims to improve and develop Arabic dictionaries, and enrich the Arabic linguistic content available on the Internet, thus contributing to spreading knowledge, improving the cultural and educational level, enhancing cultural communication and interaction among peoples, and supporting works that serve the Arabic language.
It consists of four main areas; dictionaries concerned with vocabulary, dictionaries concerned with structures, dictionaries concerned with terms, and dictionaries concerned with uses and semantics.
KSAA calls those interested in this field and who wish to participate in creating the digital dictionaries to register on the Academy’s website, which includes the conditions for participation.
