Expert: Media in the use of network language must be careful when

"Xinhua Dictionary" should be "happy new" no "Yanjiu"

The newly published "Xinhua Dictionary" in the network contains a large number of "Swatow", puts some of the commonly used words abandoned, causing many disputes. After the call the reporter interviewed experts -

Professor Wang Xiangfeng proposal "Xinhua Dictionary" should be out in two versions, one version for daily use, and second, Collector's Edition

July 24 morning, the writer Chi Li in Hong Kong Book Fair to do a lecture about the language, topics related to the current network of Swatow, advertisements on Chinese spoil the view. For the newly published "Xinhua Dictionary" in incorporated into many "Swatow" (trendy language) practice, she said that does not recognize, "so impatient to test will not be enough time to temper the language of income in, is very wrong of . "

July 10, almost every Chinese person familiar with the "Xinhua Dictionary" Start "fade" and become very trendy. In the latest 11th edition "Xinhua Dictionary", many popular online word "house slaves", "sun wages", "show field", "academic door" so incorporated. At the same time, this "Xinhua Dictionary" also increased by nearly one-third of capacity, the magnitude of the greatly revised over the years is rare. This change caused a lot of readers of discussion - "Xinhua Dictionary" Should the Bo eye and pursuing a "fashion"? The network should increase the number of words? Reporters on the experts and the "Xinhua Dictionary" user interviews were conducted.

Press "Swatow" feature, "to force" should be selected, "Xinhua Dictionary"

Has 58-year-old, "Xinhua Dictionary" with the latest version received a total of more than 13,000 words, words to the word system, received more than 3,300 annotated words, in the previous version based on an increase of nearly one-third capacity, it shows the new version, "Xinhua Dictionary" with the times. But the reporter look new, "Xinhua Dictionary" and found that not all the most fashionable term, the freshest of the network can access this dictionary language. Such as "Horse of God" (what), "Shoes" (the students) and so on.

In Shenyang, a secondary school teacher, said Shao work: some of the widespread use on the network, but there are different words and grammatical errors are suspected failed to make the new terms, "Xinhua Dictionary", this is very true. Because this is not standard terminology. Vocabulary should be kept with the times, but it is not no rules at all. Such as the "Pheasant" word of explanation, the 1971 version of "pheasant" and explained that the "pheasant", then said "you can eat meat, feather decorations can be done" to the 2008 edition, after deleting the sentence. However, the current state of some mainstream media are used "to force" and other new words, this was "Xinhua Dictionary" to give up some really puzzling.

"Dialogue," "Motorcycle" "Kerosene" was not properly removed

"Xinhua Dictionary" was born half a century in the process, how to identify the essence of popular vocabulary with dross, is indeed a very complex task. If the 11th edition, "Xinhua Dictionary" in the lower part of the frequency of use terms such as "motor", "Dialogue,", "Motorcycle", "Kerosene," "Secretary", "cooperative" and so removed out of this is not necessarily the correct approach.

July 27, the reporter sought the advice of well-known scholar of Liaoning University, Department of Chinese, PhD supervisor Professor Wang Xiangfeng, he said: "For the life there, it sounds very fresh vocabulary, some valuable, some not worth while in everyday life are widely used and valuable words, they should recognize. any one time will have a new vocabulary, I think, who entered the language in use, the dictionary should be given to income and some curse words, such as that Qing novels appeared, although no positive meaning of these terms, but if the dictionary is not income, where to find the future? "

"Xinhua Dictionary" can not cut ties with history, but they can not give up the new words included, which, Professor Wang Xiangfeng said: "The term, should we know everything, and the general public to use the exchange can play a role, such as vocabulary "Xinhua Dictionary" income into the always possible. the small minority, only a small circle of people to understand the vocabulary, you can not receive revenue or short, should the public use was the standard. "

Professor Wang Xiangfeng appeal: "What income is not a dictionary word, but rather uncontrolled media is widely used network terms, this should not be in the newspaper, not what the network up with the language, I think, in the use of network media language must be careful. "

If the "Xinhua Dictionary" out in two versions, one for everyday use version; Second Collection, all included in the vocabulary all be retained. This can be done "like new" no "Yanjiu", would not best of both worlds?
