Gerardo Sierra, Rodrigo Alarcón, César Aguilar, Alberto Barrón Cedeño
A repository of Definitional Contexts, even more than to be conceived of as traditional corpora, is very valuable tool for lexicography. This paper describes a corpus of Definitional Contexts, from the definition of the term to the description of the applications of the corpus in lexicography. The intended applications for the work, and how these affected the corpus design, are described. In addition, the methodology for corpus building and the corpus structure are outlined, and the preliminary results of the work in progress are presented.
