Repository for Philippine language dictionary data

This repository includes a number of old (the most recent is from 1972) dictionaries of Philippine languages I've digitized with the help of Distributed Proofreaders. These are in various states of completeness.

When completed, the full text will be available on Project Gutenberg. In addition, I've prepared a web-interface to the data on my Bohol website.

Included here are:

  • Sofronio G. Calderón, Diccionario Ingles-Español-Tagalog, Manila, 1915. (20738; Web interface)
  • Juan Felis de la Encarnacion, Diccionario Espanñol-Bisaya, Binonda, 1866.
  • John Kaufmann, Visayan-English Dictionary, Iloilo, 1934. (Web interface)
  • Charles Nigg, A Tagalog-English and English-Tagalog Dictionary, Manila, 1904.
  • John U. Wolff, A Dictionary of Cebuano Visayan, 1972. (40074; Web interface; Android App)

Also included are the specific scripts used to process these dictionaries (mostly in Perl).

Further scripts for processing the TEI files generated from these files can be found in my tei2html Project
