• Resumen

  • In our paper, we will present the Lexitation project, which is, to our knowledge, the first attempt at extracting lexicographic abilities using experimental techniques. We will describe the methods and results of our initial set of experiments, that are based on the use of so-called Think Aloud Protocol (Ericsson & Simon, 1993). We will explain how experiments have been set up and how we are currently proceeding with the extraction and modeling of various types of knowledge and strategies used by lexicographers while performing lexicographic tasks. Finally, we will present possible applications of our work in the field of language teaching.
