The ''Explanatory Dictionary of the Living Great Russian Language'' (), commonly known as ''Dahl's Explanatory Dictionary'' () is a major explanatory dictionary of the Russian language. It contains about 200,000 words and 30,000 proverbs. It was collected, edited and published by academician Vladimir Ivanovich Dahl () (1801–1872), one of the most prominent Russian language lexicographers and folklore collectors of the 19th century. ''Dahl's Explanatory Dictionary'' of the Great Russian language was the only substantial dictionary printed repeatedly (1935, 1955) in the Soviet Union in compliance with the old rules of spelling and alphabet, which were repealed in 1918. ==History and features== The author shows his specific understanding of the Russian language on the cover, using the old spelling ''Толковый словарь живаго великорускаго языка'' (with single "s" in "Russian"). However, this is a unique ''spelling'' deviation from the standard grammar, on which Dahl insisted. In his speeches at the Russian Geographical Society (traditionally published with his forewords in a preface) Dahl opposes the "illiterate" distortion of words in vulgar parlance. However he distinguishes between these distortions and regional dialectical variations, which he collected meticulously over decades of travel from European Russia to Siberia. Another principle on which Dahl insisted rigorously was the rejection of transliterated/transcribed foreign-language roots as base words, in favour of Russian roots. However certain loanwords like "''проспект''" (Prospekt (street)) were included. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Explanatory Dictionary of the Living Great Russian Language」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
