ENGLISH LANGUAGE DATA AND DICTIONARIES

The Lexicala data stems from numerous lexicographic resources compiled by experienced lexicographers at K Dictionaries, for the creation of monolingual, bilingual, multilingual and learner’s dictionaries.

Each dictionary prototype was conceived with its own macrostructure and entry microstructure to serve a unique purpose and satisfy a specific target user group. The following dictionary series are available online, in mobile apps, and in print.
