Las unidades pluriverbales nominales equivalentes a compuesto en los diccionarios bilingües lituano-español/francés/inglés
The Multiword Expressions Equivalent to a Compound Noun in Bilingual Lithuanian-Spanish/French/English Dictionaries

Summary/Abstract: The linguistic terms noun compound, locution, non-standard collocation and termeme correspond to different concepts, but in bilingual lexicography and in translation their treatment is simpler, because they designate lexical units that have mostly their ful equivalent in other languages. These units appear in dictionaries as lemmas, subentries or examples with their equivalents. In this article, we lay dawn the differences between these concepts and their confluence in the generic term noun compound. A corpus of compounds from Lithuanian and their equivalents in Spanish, French and English (extracted from bilingual dictionaries) is analysed, which shows that their lexical structure in many cases is parallel; the semes forming their meaning can be traced in the components of the lexical unit.
