“…The situation is similar with reasonably sized general English dictionaries (Atkins and Rundell 2008: 187), most of which include proper nouns. Some authors justify their status of dictionary entries by claiming that all that is exceptional about them is their sheer number (Mignot and Philippe 2022). To establish a standardized approach to the lexicographic treatment of proper nouns in general dictionaries, Bozkurt (2019: 19) concludes that the issue necessitates a detailed study of the attitudes of dictionary users towards proper names, the ways in which they search for them in dictionaries, and the kind of reference sources they use to look them up.…”

This paper deals with theoretical and practical aspects of the recently published Novi englesko–srpski rečnik sportskih termina [Eng. A New English–Serbian Dictionary of Sports Terms] (Milić et al. 2021). The aim is to shed light on solutions that have given rise to innovations in Serbian lexicography. Following the theoretical underpinnings of the lexicographic model and its description, the discussion centers on resolving macrostructural and microstructural issues that could not be brought into accordance with the existing lexicographic and lexicological norms. The problematic issues dealt with include the morphosyntax of headwords, the adaptation of Japanese-based and gymnastics terms from English into Serbian, and the Dictionary's medium in the digital era. The current research builds on previous works from 2017 to 2021, the main result of which was the publication of the Dictionary. Keywords: dictionary, English, Serbian, lexicography, lexicology, sport, standardization, term, terminology

“…If the words have a referent, something outside the language the word refers to, then the word has referential meaning. If the words do not have a referent, then the words are non-referential (Mignot & Philippe, 2022) In sentence (a), the word here indicates a very narrow place. There may be only a bench or only a piece of space from a bench.…”

One must choose a meaningful word or sentence to reveal the intended meaning and purpose. The wrong choice of words in an idiom can be fatal. Therefore, studying and understanding several types of meanings of an idiom in the language is necessary. This study aims to provide a theoretical map of the types of expressions with different meanings in Arabic. This study uses a library research method that examines sources of information related to the idiom model in Arabic. The results of this study indicate that in Bahasa Indonesia, there are approximately twelve types of utterance meanings. The twelve types of meaning will help the language speakers determine the right choice of words to express the desired meaning. Meanwhile, in Arabic, there are approximately twelve types, including Lexical Meaning, Grammatical Meaning, Contextual Meaning, Referential Meaning, Denotative Meaning, Connotative Meaning, Conceptual Meaning, Associative Meaning, Word Meaning, Term Meaning, Idiom Meaning, and finally the meaning of proverbs.
