Exhibition of Russian Language Dictionaries at Slavfond
The "Russian Language Dictionaries" exhibition opened at Slavfond, presenting visitors with a unique collection of editions preserved in the foundation's library. At the heart of the exhibition are classical explanatory dictionaries, edited by renowned lexicographers such as D. N. Ushakov and S. I. Ozhegov. Complementing these works is the "Explanatory Dictionary of Modern Russian", which reflects linguistic changes of the late 20th century.
Among the most valuable exhibits are Vladimir Dal's "Illustrated Explanatory Dictionary of the Living Great Russian Language" and the "Russian Biographical Dictionary" by F. A. Brockhaus and I. A. Efron. Visitors can also explore the "Comprehensive Russian Spelling Dictionary", the "Dictionary of Proper Speech", and numerous specialized publications, including dictionaries of phraseology, orthoepy, and synonyms.
The exhibition was organized to mark the beginning of translation practice for students of the "Russian Language and Culture" program at Matej Bel University in Banská Bystrica. However, it has attracted not only students but also a wide range of readers, guests, and visitors of our foundation.
