Problems concerning Dialecal and Subdialecal Dictionaries As Seen in Chaozhou-Shantou Subdialectal Dictionaries

In this paper,the history and present status of the compilation and publication of Chaozhou-Shantou subdialectal dictionaries are investigated with evidence from two types of dictionaries,namely,those with homonymic characters arranged in order of finals and those with characters entered in order of traditional Chinese radicals and/or number of strokes. Their merits and demerits are compared, with Chaozhou-Shantou Subdialectal Dictionary by Chen Lingqian, A New Chaozhoulese Dictionary by Wu Huachong and others, and Putonghua - Chaozhou-Shantou Subdialectal Dictionary as representatives. Finally, the author of this paper presents his own arguments over such problems in dictionary compilation as entries selection , pronunciation pairing, grammatical and semantic information, and indexes or searching aids.
