Book excerpt: In the autumn of 2015 we published a monograph titled Slovar sodobne slovenščine: problemi in rešitve (Znanstvena založba Filozofske fakultete UL, 660 pages), which presents the results of studies focussed on some of the key questions in the conceptualisation of a state-of-the-art dictionary of Slovene; a dictionary that would address the challenges of modern lexicography, and would promote Slovenian lexicographic theory and practice internationally. The monograph contained 32 chapters, co-authored by as many researchers. Our point of departure were two main aims of the dictionary: to inform Slovene native speakers and other users about lexical and grammatical characteristics of the Slovene language using state-of-the-art lexicographic practices, and to provide a lexical and grammatical resource for the development of language technologies. In order for the dictionary to be useful for language technology applications, it should be conceptualised as a machine-readable database, available under open access. This will also enable the compilation of dictionaries for other target users, as we are aware there is a need for language resources that meet the needs of different types of users, from pupils and students to language professionals such as translators and editors, from native speakers to non-native speakers of Slovene.
