I am currently in the process of creating a personal dictionary, and
would appreciate some (constructive) feedback on the design. The data
will be stored in an Access database, and the interface will be a VB
application. My primary focus now is the Klingon word list; if I get
ambitious later, I will add an English keyword list and a canon database,
complete with a parser to add references to the wordlist.
My current wordlist table has all the basics:
Word
Definition
Part of speech
Source
Qualifiers (regional, slang)
Notes
Both the part of speech and the source are coded into several fields so
that I can generate such things as jatlh: verb: transitive & speaking, or
maH: noun: quantitative: number forming element (or chuvmey: pronoun).
I am also considering adding related words. For example, <Qub> could have
links to <Sov>, <Har>, <Hon>, etc., thus adding something resembling a
thesaurus to the dictionary.
