Principal Investigator: Ľubor Králik

Investigator: Katarína Rausová

Grant scheme and Evidence number: VEGA – project no. 2/0126/24

Annotation: The basic goal of the project is the preparation of the 3rd, expanded and revised edition of the Concise Etymological Dictionary of Slovak, which will take into account the lexicon contained in the Dictionary of the Contemporary Slovak Language, as well as the latest works of Slavic etymology. The most significant new knowledge obtained during the accompanying own etymological research of the Slovak lexicon will be presented in the form of scientific studies. As part of the application dimension of the project, an etymological component will be provided for other long-term projects implemented at ĽŠIL SAS with the support of VEGA (Dictionary of contemporary Slovak language, Dictionary of Slovak dialects, Slavic language atlas) and for the Encyclopaedia Beliana project. An important output of the proposed project will also be a monothematic issue of the Linguistics Journal dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the birth of the Slovak etymologist Šimon Ondruš (1924 – 2011), which will be edited by the project manager.
