    Planning a dictionary for mother tongue education: a conceptual framework for Gabonese languages
    (SUN, 2017) Assam, Blanche Nyangone
    The present article is a plea for mother tongue education dictionary projects in Gabonese lexicography. The latter has been in a fast-developing process for the past twenty years and has experienced quite an important crop of dictionary products in such a short time. However, the production of dictionaries for mother tongue education, especially for Gabonese native lan-guages, has been totally neglected. Only a very limited number of projects, which have ever since remained at the level of studies, do exist. This article provides a conceptual plan for mother tongue education dictionary production in Gabonese native languages. It successively suggests an organi-sation plan and a dictionary conceptualisation plan.

    Towards a comprehensive dictionary of Gabonese french
    (Buro van die WAT, 2022) Mavoungou, Paul A.; Ndinga-Koumba-Binza, Hugues Steve; Assam, Blanche Nyingone
    The present article reports on the conceptualization of the Dictionnaire G�n�ral du Fran�ais Gabonais. The dictionary project is a first of its kind in Gabonese lexicography. As an outcome of the inception of Gabonese French lexicography, the dictionary project arose from a discussion on the definition of Gabonese French, which Gabonese French lexicography should account for. In this article, the project background as well as the interests for the planned dictionary are presented. The article also deals with two key aspects of the dictionary conceptualization plan, i.e., lexicographic processes and the dictionary basis.
