Urdu Dictionary Board's Dictionary: Some Errors
Keywords
Urdu Dictionary Board, Dr Shaukat Sabzwari, Urdu Dictionary
Abstract

Urdu Dictionary Board has successfully completed the editing and publishing of its 22-volume Urdu dictionary on historical principles, recording the largest number of entries ever enlisted in any Urdu dictionary. But when it was being compiled, Dr Shaukat Sabzwari (1908-1973), one of the editors, had pointed out in an article some of the discrepancies in the proposed manuscript relating to the entries beginning with the letter alif. A copy of this article was handed over by the author to Muhammad Ahsan Khan (Lahore), who was helping the board as an external scholar at that time and continued in the same capacity for about 50 years till the completion of the project in 2010. This article remained unpublished for some 30 years and is now being published through the courtesy of Muhammad Ahsan Khan. It discusses some errors that had crept into the entries given in the proposed manuscript of the dictionary's first volume, which was being in the process of compilation in those days. Some of the errors mentioned persisted in the final draft that was published in 1977, albeit some of them were amended.
