Paul (10) | BracketsDifferent types of brackets serve different purposes on dict.cc:<angle> ..... abbreviations/acronyms (don't count as words for sorting, but act as keywords) [square] ..... visible comments (don't count as words for sorting, don't act as keywords) (round) ....... for optional parts (count as words for sorting, act as keywords) {curly} ........ word class definitions (use word class field instead, except for gender tags like {f}, {pl}, ...) Example abbreviation: Abkürzung {f} <Abk.> .............. would be found for the keyword "Abk" Example comment: Vorschneider {m} [Gewinde] ... would not be found for the keyword "Gewinde" (To still find this entry for the keyword "Gewinde" you can search for the term in square brackets: "[Gewinde]") When searching for "Abkürzung" or "Vorschneider", these examples would be treated as one-word entries, so they would be listed on top of the search results pages. If the brackets were round, the examples would be treated as two-word entries, listed further below. Square brackets are used for disambiguations, explanations, usage hints or to add prepositions to one-word entries as in fähig [zu], Gefahr {f} [für] or capable [de]. forum If a word, especially a pejorative one, does not have a translation on the same level of language, use an explanation in square brackets. Example: Musel {m} [ugs.] [pej.] ....... [derogatory term for Muslim] forum Multiple abbreviations are written within one pair of angle brackets, as in Tuesday <Tue., Tu.>. Don't add comments, such as "less frequent" within angle brackets! |
