LexicoNordica

In 1994, the association began publishing a Nordic lexicographical journal, LexicoNordica. In addition to lexicographic contributions in the form of articles – partly related to a specific theme in each issue – workshop reports and announcements from the NFL, particular emphasis is placed on reviews and brief mentions of new dictionaries in the journal. The magazine is approx. 300-400 pages. LexicoNordica’s editorial staff expects that the journal will be able to contribute to a higher quality of reviews of Nordic dictionaries, to the benefit of lexicographers and the publishing industry. It is also worth emphasizing that many reviews have a theoretical value where lexicographical theories and issues are assessed in relation to concrete dictionary work. All contributions are peer-reviewed. All issues of LexicoNordica, except the last two, here (see also direct link to some issues below).
