Telugu Telugu Nighantuvu
It is a major and comprehensive dictionary project of Telugu language. All the words which are in daily usage in Telugu language will be included in this dictionary.
Bhasha shastra paribhashika nighantuvu
Each and every subject has technical terminologies. If one wants to understand the subject clearly, he/she should understand the terminologies of the subject first. In the same way Linguistics has also many technical terminologies. The Europeans who are standing first in research and knowledge in Linguistics, prepared many Linguistic terminological dictionaries. In spite of our rich literary traditions, we do not have a terminological dictionary for Linguistics especially in Telugu.
To full fill the lacuna, the Department of Lexicography undertook a project named Bhasha shastra paribhashika nighantuvu. David Crystals Dictionary of Phonetics and Linguistics is being used as base for preparing this dictionary. This will certainly help the teacher as well as students who are going to teach and study Linguistics in Telugu medium as well as the other Telugu mother tongue people who are interested in Linguistics. With in a year or two this will be published by the department of Lexicography.
