A definingvocabulary is a published, stable, and culturally accepted core glossary specifically used by dictionary publishers to standardize their use of simple words to explain complex words, and culture specific idioms or metaphors. It can also be published as a defining dictionary , but the most common use of such dictionaries is to assist in creating new dictionaries. An example of a useful published vocabulary is Basic English 850 words . The definingvocabulary used by Longman Longman s to define its 4000 most common English language idioms is about 2000 words long. The English variant E Prime is designed to avoid any judgemental statements, and so also may be useful for a neutral definingvocabulary.

Unreferenced date December 2009 Vocabulary development is the process whereby speakers of language enhance their working vocabulary working vocabularies with new words.

English, for example, contains approximately 600,000 words, established by the Oxford University Press . Citation needed date May 2009 This discrepancy, however, is partly due to relative simplicity of spoken language to written language. Additionally, one may understand more words than one uses, meaning that one s working vocabulary may not be representative of one s total knowledge of a language.

Maliseet Vocabulary is a book that provided the first published, substantial study of the Maliseet language. It was written by Montague Chamberlain and published by the Harvard Cooperative Society , in 1899. Maliseet Vocabulary has become a valuable source on the Maliseet language. Chamberlain credits Maliseet native James Pual of Apohaqui as his principal assistant in gathering Maliseet vocabulary. The book includes an introduction by Professor William Francis Ganong William F. Ganong of Smith College , who refers to the book as the first work in the field, and asserts that as of 1899 the young people of the Maliseet care nothing for their language and culture , and that the conditions making the book possible were rapidly slipping away with the passing of the then present generation, although this prediction has fortunately not been borne out. Maliseet Vocabulary includes English language English translations for about 1,600 Maliseet words, arranged in 29 categories. Given Chamberlain s status as a natural history naturalist and bird enthusiast, he managed to record 481 Maliseet words related to plants and animal s, including 124 Maliseet words for different types of birds. Some of this profusion of natural world vocabulary is also inherent in the Maliseet culture for example, the book includes six different Maliseet words for birch bark, depending on the status of the bark. 98 of the words are place name proper nouns, and 156 words are listed as of post European contact origin mostly constructed of Maliseet roots while a few are transliterations of English and French language French words , including fourteen words related to gun s.

Comics vocabulary consists of many different techniques and images which a comic book artist employs in order to convey a narrative within the Mass media medium of comics . This vocabulary forms a language variously identified as sequential art , graphic storytelling, pictorial stories, visual language or comics. Whilst scholars have yet to unite on a term to define the language, the communicative tools of that language have been formalised in works by authors such as Will Eisner , Scott McCloud and Mort Walker . Creative team A comic book s creative team or sometimes creators generally refer to the same individuals those responsible for the specific creation of a particular book or story. However creators can also refer to the individuals who first wrote drew a particular character or title. For example, the character of Superman was created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster , but while they are that character s creators, they are not per se the creators creative team of every title featuring him. The creative team usually refers to two main roles, with around four subsidiary ones. Primarily, the term refers to the writer and artist . This latter term is usually used to refer to the penciler , but also includes the role of an inker and colorist . There is usually also a letterer involved in the hands on creation of a comic book, and then an editor behind the scenes. Any combination of these people that includes the key roles of writer and artist can reasonably be said to refer to a creative team The term describes the individual s who created the comic book in question. A writer , artist , letterer , and editor will usually be credited in the comic book. Note that these functions can be performed by one or more people, acting collectively or individually.
