In this paper we present an expansion of the ideas discussed in by Romary (2014) and Bowers & Seltmann (2016) the primary goal of which is to re-introduce a native form of onomasiological data representation in TEI, leveraging the degree of expressivity of the TEI and finding an optimal re-use for elements which are equivalent to TBX constructs, as they provide a more differentiated content model and are ultimately better suited to the variability of use cases in the context of the TEI community.
In this paper we present an expansion of the ideas discussed in by Romary (2014) and Bowers & Seltmann (2016) the primary goal of which is to re-introduce a native form of onomasiological data representation in TEI, leveraging the degree of expressivity of the TEI and finding an optimal re-use for elements which are equivalent to TBX constructs, as they provide a more differentiated content model and are ultimately better suited to the variability of use cases in the context of the TEI community. Additionally, our proposals aim to accommodate a more comprehensive variety of scenarios that may be relevant for a number of different linguistic, lexicographic and terminology management use cases for which no sufficient encoding scheme currently exists in TEI. Also included are proposals for the encoding of a more diverse array of comparative lexicographical entry configurations that may not always be onomasiological such as cognate sets and dialect data whose basis of comparison/organization may be motivated by a common form (via common etymology) and/or meaning.
The core use cases upon which this work is based consist of:
As a result, we will present
