Concurrent Over- and Under-treatment in Dictionaries. A Response

Willem Botha

Editor-in-Chief of the Woordeboek van die Afrikaanse Taal wfb{at}sun.ac.za

In my response I will attempt to establish what the WAT, Afrikaans lexicography and lexicography in general can gain by a discussion of Gilles-Maurice de Schryver's article. Let me start by expressing my appreciation for G.-M. De Schryver and D.J. Prinsloo's efforts to develop a ‘Ruler’ for all eleven official languages of South Africa. I have no doubt that their efforts can make a big contribution to South African lexicography. I, however, also want to respond to the main arguments or points of criticism regarding the WAT.
