Pravopisno slovaropisje na Inštitutu za slovenski jezik Frana Ramovša ZRC SAZU

Abstract

In this article we present the normative activity of the Lexicological Section of the Fran Ramovš Institute of the Slovenian Language at ZRC SAZU. In particular, the researchers investigate the codification of linguistic standards developed in the second half of the 20th century and early 21st century. Whereas Slovenian normative guides of the 20th century had twofold function, serving as an orthographic guide as well as a monolingual explanatory dictionary, the normative guide of the 21st century needs to be created in a digital environment and therefore organized as a language database providing normative information. Finally, some of the issues of database design are discussed.
