Description:
The general theme of the ASIALEX 2001 Conference is "Asian Bilingualism and the Dictionary." The organizing committee believe that bilingualism and the dictionary have special aspects in the Asian context, a subject that has not received sufficient consideration so far and whose significance is growing very fast in this age of accelerated cross-cultural, informatic contact between the peoples of Asia and the rest of the world. However, we welcome practically all topics related to the dictionary.

Following is a list of topics we consider to be relevant. Since this is not exhaustive, other topics may be added.

1. Corpus Linguistics, Lexicology, Lexicography 2. Computational Lexicography 3. Lexicographical Processes and Methods 4. Language Education and Dictionary 5. Terminography 6. Lexicographical Problems in Asian Bilingualism

Languages to be used will be Korean and English.
