The (c. 649) Yiqiejing yinyi 一切經音義 "Pronunciation and Meaning in the Complete Buddhist Canon" is the oldest surviving Chinese dictionary of Buddhist technical terminology, and was the archetype for later Chinese bilingual dictionaries.
 This specialized glossary was compiled by the Tang dynasty lexicographer monk Xuanying 玄應, who was a translator for the famous pilgrim and Sanskritist monk Xuanzang.
 When Xuanying died he had only finished 25 chapters of the dictionary, but another Tang monk Huilin 慧琳 compiled an enlarged 100-chapter version with the same title, the (807) "Yiqiejing yinyi".
A Syllabic Dictionary of the Chinese Language: Arranged According to the Wu-Fang Yuen Yin, with the Pronunciation of the Characters as Heard in Peking, Canton, Amoy, and Shanghai or the Hàn-Yīng yùnfǔ 漢英韻府 (1874), compiled by the American sinologist and missionary Samuel Wells Williams, is the third major Chinese-English dictionary after Robert Morrison's (1815-1823) "A Dictionary of the Chinese Language" and Walter Henry Medhurst's (1842) "Chinese and English Dictionary".
 Williams' 1056-page bilingual dictionary includes 10,940 character headword entries, alphabetically collated under 522 syllables.
 Williams was the first Chinese-English lexicographer to correctly distinguish the phonemic contrast between unaspirated-aspirated stop consonant pairs, for instance, giving "t'ao" for aspirated "táo" 桃 "peach" and "tao" for unaspirated "dào" 道 "way; the Dao".
 While most previous Chinese-English dictionaries only gloss standard Beijing dialect pronunciations, Williams' dictionary also includes variant ones from Middle Chinese and four regional varieties of Chinese, according to the 17th-century "Wufang yuanyin" 五方元音 "Proto-sounds of Speech in All Directions".
The Language Report (or, strictly, the language report) was an account of the state and use of the English language published by the Oxford University Press (OUP) in 2003.
 It was compiled by lexicographer Susie Dent, best known for her regular appearances on the television word game "Countdown", and was an annual publication until 2007.
The (c. 807) Yiqiejing yinyi 一切經音義 "Pronunciation and Meaning in the Complete Buddhist Canon" was compiled by the Tang dynasty lexicographer monk Huilin 慧琳 as an expanded revision of the original (c. 649) "Yiqiejing yinyi" compiled by Xuanying 玄應.
 Collectively, Xuanying's 25-chapter and Huilin's 100-chapter versions constitute the oldest surviving Chinese dictionary of Buddhist technical terminology (for instance, "Púsà" 菩薩 or "Pútísàtuo" 菩提薩埵 for "Bodhisattva").
 A recent history of Chinese lexicography (Yong and Peng 2008: 371) call Huilin's "Yiqiejing yinyi" "a composite collection of all the glossaries of scripture words and expressions compiled in and before the Tang Dynasty" and "the archetype of the Chinese bilingual dictionary".
Susie Dent (born November 19, 1964) is an English lexicographer and etymologist.
 She has appeared in "Dictionary Corner" on the Channel 4 game show "Countdown" every year since 1992.
 She also appears on "8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown", which is a late night comedy version of the show presented by comedian Jimmy Carr.

 The first edition was published in 1937 and seven editions were eventually published by Partridge.
 An eighth edition was published in 1984, after Partridge's death, by editor Paul Beale; in 1990 Beale published an abridged version, Partridge's Concise Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English.
Dissertation on the English Language was a book written by American lexicographer Noah Webster in 1789.
 The book followed Webster's 1783 work "Spelling Book" and aimed to differentiate American English from British English.
 In the book, Webster commented that "our honor requires us to have a system of our own, in language as well as government.
 Great Britain ... should no longer be "our" standard; for the taste of her writers is already corrupted, and her language on the decline."
 This dissertation was dedicated to Benjamin Franklin.
