Dictionaries (real, paper ones!)

Ever been in a bookshop, staring at the rows and rows of dictionaries (sometimes walls and walls of them), and wondering which one.. or two.. or.. dammit, I cannot possibly buy them all! Not today, probably not in this life, but then maybe someday...

Still, there seems to be some hope on the horizon: in this article, YiLing Chen-Josephson looks at a couple of dictionaries and takes her best shot at trying to categorize them in various ways. Although I don't agree with some of her conclusions, it's a great read anyway!

Thanks, anima! (warning: her blog has been mostly in Bulgarian lately)
