Abstract

This paper presents a methodology for building and manipulating human-oriented dictionaries. This methodology has been applied in the construction of a French-English-Malay dictionary which has been obtained by "crossing" semi-automatically two bilingual dictionaries. We use only Microsoft Word, a specialized language for writing transcriptors and a small but powerful dictionary tool.
