Unreferenced date December 2009 A multi field dictionary is a specialized dictionary that has been designed and compiled to cover the terms within two or more subject fields. Multi field dictionaries should be contrasted with single field dictionary single field dictionaries and sub field dictionary sub field dictionaries . The typology consisting of these three dictionaries is important for a number of reasons. First of all, a multi field dictionary is an example of the ordinary technical dictionary, covering a large number of separate subject fields, e.g. banking, economics, finance, insurance and marketing. The main problem with multi field dictionaries is that they tend to cover one or two subjects extensively, whereas the vast majority of subject are only represented by a very limited number of terms. Secondly, the typical multi field dictionary tends to be a minimizing dictionary , i.e. it covers only a limited number of terms within the subjects covered. Thirdly, if the lexicographer s intend to make a bilingual, maximizing multi field dictionary they run into problems with the large amount of data that has to be included in the dictionary. Consequently, the best coverage of linguistic and extra linguistic aspects within the subject field covered by a dictionary will be found in a single field dictionary .
