WOODS GLOSSARY OF TERMS Polish ir Lithuanian "hunting" terms give considerable light to ancient times. K. Būga We did not have a similar publication before, so the idea of preparing a (Lithuanian-English-German-French-Russian) dictionary! truly is good. Hunting and its traditions have been familiar to Lithuanians since ancient times. The glossary is composed of thematic — terms, which are divided into sections according į 8 to topics, covering alphabetica1000 lly arranged terms used by general hunters, hunting types, hunting ir equipment, hunting dog breeds, birds and ir body parts, as well as trophies and hunting rifles. ir jų The last du chapters are illustrated. There are explanations for some Lithuanian terms in parentheses, and Latin names for many bird o po names. ir ir A large number of terms have nests, but it is not very clear on what principle these nests are formed, because, for example, herd, population; herd of ungulates, wildlife population, herd of game animals are presented as separate heading terms, the terms of the section itself duck herd, wolf herd, goose herd are in one nest as heading term herd. o to su This type of structure is typical of the entire dictionary. Well, all heading generic terms ir (excluding 7 ir 8 The terms in the sections are numbered, so the alphabetical indexes in all five languages at the end of the publication can help you find the term you are looking for. However, ir there are inaccuracies here. For example, sų the numbered 196 term duck hunting is not in the dictionary text. (omitted), 0 95 ir 308 the numbered terms are not in the indexes or in the text (omitted either terms or numbers). It should be specified that the sequence number of the index term "Petružis G. Hunting Dictionary. Vilnius: Encyclopaedia 1997. 128 p. 77 is not written “at each heading word”, as it is written in the preposition (there is no nest in these arrows!), at each term, o because hunting area or branched second-level starling is not a word, but a compound term. It is also unclear what the author of the dictionary meant when he said that "the word order of the indexed compound terms is left as it was in the dictionary". The question is whether it could be any different. Moreover, even before beginning to delve into the dictionary itself, | the eye falls already in the first sentence of the preface undetected proofing error and some inaccuracies: nests are somehow called “polzdžiai”; Instead of the term "no third genus" the term "anonymous genus" would be more appropriate. A few comments should also be made on the timing itself. One of the most striking shortcomings of this dictionary is that the Lithuanian terms contained in it are not spelled. Pronunciation of words, as well as of terms, is a very important matter for the Lithuanian language user, so that the pronunciation of Lithuanian terms is no less important than indicating the gender or marking plural words with the main word of German and French title terms. There are also some minor inaccuracies and inconsistencies in the presentation of terms in this dictionary. For example, although there is the word train (20), the term well-trained (=trained) dog is used (267). The term hunting (147) is explained as ‘the number of animals that can be hunted or have been hunted’. How can the word hunting mean a number? In fact, it is just the name of the action. Strangely, in the hunting dictionary we find the term rooster (330), but not the term pug (Philomachus pugnax). We find ornithological terms black eagles (Ciconia nigra), singing swan (Cygnus cygnus), but there is no interesting Lithuanian term gargoyle. We will also not find the names of recently extinct hunted animals, e.g.: deer, wolf, etc. If the terms Shark, crow are added, then the terms marvas (Corvus frugilegus), /ingé (Circus) would also be suitable. In addition to (or instead of) international words and terms, Lithuanian equivalents are missing in some places. The worse to check, supervise than to inspect, control (38); potato sunflower for topinambur (169); blade defects for blade defects (p.62) pan. ir ? 18 It would be interesting to know what lexicographical sources and criteria for ir terminology selection the author of the dictionary relied on, because in the "Hunting dogs" presents only a few breeds, in the encyclopedia jų o ‘Dogs’ (V., hunting 1995) dog breeds are over e.g.: Afghan Curl, English Fockhud, 50, Golden Retriever, Azawakh (South curl), bladhead (Sv. Hubert's Stallion), Estonian Stallion, Clam-Gallas Spaniel, Kurzhaar (German Shorthair Bird Dog), Laikas, Langhaar (German Longhair Bird Dog), Latvian Stallion, Lithuanian Stallion, Russian Longhair Kurt, Slugi (Arab kurta), Taigan (Kyrgyz kurta), terriers, Weimaraner (Weimar paukstsunis), Hungarian kurta, etc. ir These are perhaps all the ne shortcomings of the publication, but they do not diminish the significance of the dictionary. They may be useful in preparing the next, more ir complete edition of this dictionary. Nijolė BANEVIČIENĖ 79
