Folk Lexicography. Main Features of Lithuanian Internet Slang Dictionaries (as a Result of the Metalingual Activity)

Summary/Abstract: ‘Folk lexicography’ is a phenomenon of modern linguistic culture, the result of the metalingual activity and one of the most significant manifestations of naïve linguistics. Online slang dictionaries for amateur creation are becoming an indispensable research area and a generous source of information for traditional lexicographers. Their ‘online’ form makes data collection extremely user-friendly, and in terms of audience coverage, they cannot compete with any other phenomenon. Open-access dictionaries provide an opportunity to discover the latest slang units, to monitor their use in the most modern contexts, as well as to analyze the lively process of linguistic creation. If a paper dictionary can be understood as a scientific resource, then an open electronic dictionary – a multivariate creation of a modern virtual community – can be perceived as a continuous creative process.
