Throughout the summer and fall, the Legal Dictionary of Property in Canada website will offer new features in the form of supplements to the LDPC. It is with great pleasure that we will announce these new features as they are published. An extended online version of the dictionary will also be published, to be followed by a print version towards the end of 2011.

Newest feature at www.dualjuridik.org: a compilation of translated excerpts that attest to the LDPC's headwords in the corpus' monolingual segment.

 

June 30, 2011

 

The first supplement to the LDPC is available online - a digest of definitions cited within our bilingual-aligned corpus of Supreme Court of Canada decisions. The aim is to observe the occurrence of definitions in this specific set of decisions and, more generally, the way dictionaries are used in these texts. Interestingly, from a quantitative perspective, 12% of Supreme Court of Canada decisions cite dictionaries.

The LDPC corpus is now available for consultation. This textual database includes all the decisions from which excerpts were drawn and cited in the Legal Dictionary of Property in Canada. The time period of these decisions ranges from 1842 to 2008, though it is important to note that over 40% of these were rendered between 2000 and 2008, and that less than 10% were rendered prior to 1980.
