Sammanfattning
In 2023, the first edition of the diachronic-contemporary Swedish Academy
Dictionary (SAOB) was finished after more than 130 years of work. The dictionary contains over 500,000 entries and describes the Swedish language from the 1520s to the present day. However, a consequence of the extended time of publication is that a significant part of the content, in particular in the first volumes, was out of date even by the time of completion of the full edition. Headwords had become obsolete, the meta-language was outdated in several regards, and a lot of modern words are lacking in the lemma list of the dictionary. To address this, a revision project was initiated in the beginning of 2024. This article reports on the revision in more detail, with emphasis on the supplement of new entries.
