CHAPTER 5. WHAT THE DICTIONARIES SAY 178 c. nd out d. make sure e. escort f. meet; visit with g. consult h. have thepower of sight Even in this brief entry most of the major senses are listed. determine and ensure are distinguished, as are accompany, visit, and consult, and faculty is added. Although we may consider understand to be too broad, as in the dictionary above, this entry covers the ground very nicely. Finally consider the Concise Oxford Dictionary (Allen et al. 1990), shown below: (153) Concise Oxford Dictionary. a. perceive with the eyes. b. deduce after re ection or from information. c. regard in a speci ed way. d. meet (someone one knows) socially or by chance. e. escort to a speci ed place. f. attend to. g. ensure. h. (in poker or brag) equal the bet of (an opponent) and require them to reveal their cards to determine who has won the hand. Like the Webster's New World, there are eight sense divisions,but they are much less clear; (153-b) is vague and confusing; (153-c) may beintended to mean classify or condition, but it is hard to tell which. In (153-d), one assumes that the intended sense is visit; by the de nition we're using, one can do this either by appointment orbychance; therefore, the words socially or by chance do not seem to add any meaning. The distinction between (153-f). and (153-g) is also unclear. It is surprising to nd the gambling sense in such a small dictionary. All three dictionaries attempt to cover something of the broad semantic range of see, and none has space for examples or discussion. Although the lengths of the entries
CHAPTER 5. WHAT THE DICTIONARIES SAY 179 are comparable, the Webster's New World Dictionary does a much better job on the sense divisions. 5.3 Bilingual Dictionaries|Introduction Most bilingual dictionaries apparently try to make all and only the sense divisions that will be relevant in translating to the target language. But they do not provide just one translation or paraphrase for the sense divisions which they make; each sense division in a bilingual dictionary typically corresponds to several possible translations in the target language. For example, consider the use of see which occurs in (154). (154) a. The last time I saw Paris. . . b. You must go up there and see the factory before you decide. We treat this as a use of physical vision (eye), and consider that the tour sense which see has in the sentences is the result of the composition of the meaning of the verb with its object, i.e., a place which istobeseeninitsentirety, especially a tourist destination. One can argue, however, that this should be treated as a separate sense, on the basis of separate negation, as in Ex. (155). (155) I've never really seen Paris, although I saw it from an airplane as I ew to Frankfurt once. In the New English-Chinese Dictionary (Editing Group 1988) for example, the fourth sense division in the entry for see includes tour along with spectate. Three examples are given: (156) a. see a play b. go and see our new workshop c. see the sights of Hangzhou The rst two are translated with phrases using kan, (156-c) with youlan. But the rst is translated by an idiom in Chinese, a verb-object compound kanx (`look drama'|go to a play or opera), and (156-b) is translated by kankan, the reduplication indicating intention- ality or purposiveness. Youlan is a two-verb compound which can be glossed as `tour-view'.
