2. Database structure
The database of DiCCA-XV consists of several interrelated tables that permit querying from any of their fields. Therefore, in addition to consulting the dictionary by its words, the user interface allows complex searches based on various criteria:
a) grammatical: listings of adverbial phrases or verbal phrases, verbs with a particular regime or a specific prepositional or derivative inflectional morpheme ...
b) lexical and semantic: listings of terms of a given semantic domain or lists of verbs that select a particular argument or require terms with certain semantics in the complement.
c) etymological: latinisms, loanwords of Catalan or Italian, or fifteenth-century neologisms ...
d) onomastic: listings of specific geographical place names, or anthroponyms of certain area or population, or lists of mythological or literary terms...
e) textual: listings of all contexts of a given term, or collocations (in both anterior and posterior positions), or those that have a certain syntactic structure ...
The possibility of interbreeding these criteria allows the researcher to get a no end of outcomes. We will facilitate the research work of philologists and historians and generally of those people who are interested in a key period and a key geographic area for the configuration of modern Spanish.
