Chapter 13 of Abb Dewey Workbook - Table 4

420-490 Specific languages useful for instruction. 

Exercise 10: Number building: Adding Table 4 to 400 language
Select appropriate numbers for the following topics:


1. A dictionary of English synonyms

420 English & Old English languages
423 Dictionaries of standard English
T4--3 Dictionaries of the standard form of the language
"Including ... synonym dictionaries"

420.1-428 Subdivisions of English language
"Except for modifications shown under specific entries, add to base number 42 notation T4--01-T4--8 from Table 4 , e.g., grammar of English language 425"
423 is therefore the number required for this. 

2. An English-German dictionary (with entry words in English only)
(browsed for "bilingual dictionaries" in the relative index)
T4--3 Dictionaries of the standard from of the language

"A bilingual dictionary with entry words in only one language is classed with that language, e.g., an English-French dictionary 423"
423 Dictionaries of Standard English

regions)

T4--3  Dictionaries of the standard from of the language
"A bilingual dictionary with entry words in both languages is classed with the language in which it will be the more useful"
433 Dictionaries of standard German (43 - German, -3 from table 4 for dictionaries)

4. An Italian-German German-Italian bilingual dictionary (classification with either
language is equally useful)

T4--3 Dictionaries of the standard from of the language 

"If classification with either language is equally useful, give priority to the language coming later in the sequence 420-490 , e.g., French-German, German-French dictionaries 443"
450 Italian
430 German
453 Dictionaries of standard Italian

5. Grammaire française (a work describing morphology and syntax)
445 Grammar of standard French

"Add to base number 491.78 the numbers following T4--8 in notation T4--8001-T4--86 from Table 4"
T4--82 Structural approach to expression (Okay, so I cheated a little bit... there is no way I knew to click on this one!)
"Formal (traditional) presentation of grammar..." 
491.782
