谢谢 @random 对文本数据添加html标签,更正部分词头错误,在他制作的mdx基础上,我继续修正了一部分讹误,且略微调整。
1、参考dsl版本修复了大量法文字符错误;
2、对Colloq、Slang、Taboo、Archaic、Old-fashioned、Technical、Literary、“Brit, US, Australian, Canadian, New Zealand”这些原文的标注加了标签;
3、删除多余的“ → ”等内容;
4、略微修改html文件和css文件,命名更正规一些。
《The Oxford Thesaurus: An A-Z Dictionary Of Synonyms》是一本比较旧的书,首版于1991年,其简介如下:
First published in 1991, the very successful first edition of The Oxford Thesaurus has now sold over 126,000 copies. This new edition (NB new format), which for the first time includes antonyms in the main A-Z text, along with many additional new synonyms, broadens the book’s appeal stillfurther. The Oxford Thesaurus remains the most useful A-Z thesaurus available today, with more practical guidance for the user than any other competing title.Around 350,000 synonyms and antonyms, covering general English as well as thousands of regional and idiomatic words and expressions, are listed in A-Z form for ease of reference. Generous and detailed labelling shows how to use synonyms, and example sentences throughout make it even easier to select the correct synonym. The most useful synonyms (ie those that are closest in meaning to the headword) are listed first - a more helpful arrangement than a simple alphabetical listing under the headword.If the word for which you seek an alternative is not to be found as a headword, you can simply turn to the synonym index which lists 265,000 synonyms and shows you under which headword each synonym is located. In addition, all synonyms which also have their own headword entry (at which furtherrelated words may be found) are indicated by a simple cross-reference symbol.On the first edition:‘handier than Roget both in being alphabetical and in offering example-sentences. The mot juste in just a mo.’ Prof. Sir Randolph Quirk, The Observer.
我对它感兴趣,是因为有现成的文本,见 http://library.lol/main/EB901A391D2534E91F59817F1EF01CB7 ,且书本身品质与定位尚可,不像J. I. Rodale的The Synonym Finder那样浩繁芜杂,不是非母语人士可以轻易使用的,也不像牛津自己的learner、student同义词词典那么初阶简略。不过它原始形式是文本pdf,年代久了(2004年就有),制作不是很规范,导出word或者txt后都有各种很随意混乱的断行分段,于是用手工加正则进行了整理。
整理过程中,除了排版,也顺便纠正部分明显的讹误,比如法文字符,窜乱为 ° ý 的数字上标,但未曾全面核查,在此提请注意。
文本在清理之后,是比较规范的,加html标签,或者制作mdx,都不是很难,然而我个人喜欢plain文本格式用这种词典,所以初试了一下,尚未进一步加工,其他人感兴趣,可以继续完善。
