Contribuții lexicale la Dicţionarul limbii române și la Dicționarul etimologic al limbii române, redactate sub egida Academiei Române – ms. 3517 BAR: Nicolae Milescu Spătarul, Hronograf den începutul lumii. O samă de învățături (cca 1658–1661) (Liter

We are continuing our previous presentation related to the analysis of ms. 3517, Chronograph from the Beginning of the World (f. 1r–f. 592r) and Sundry Teachings (f. 592v–f. 608v). From one point of view or another, these manuscripts are relevant to the Romanian Academy’s dictionaries, namely The Dictionary of the Romanian Language, Old Series (DA) and The Etymological Dictionary of the Romanian Language (DELR). We have dated these translations between 1658 and 1661. In our hypothesis, the aforementioned manuscripts were translated by Nicolae Milescu Spătarul, a learned nobleman from Moldavia. This analysis of words starting with the letter C adds 124 new terms. Some of these words are rare attestations, others are first attestations compared to those presented in the DA, while some of the words we present here have no attestations from the old period in the DA. Furthermore, the present series includes variant meanings not recorded in the DA. Among the words we have presented there are some polysemantic words or entire word families, which, once again, show the lexical richness of the Chronograph from the Beginning of the World and the Sundry Teachings text. Moreover, the two texts contain more or less-known contextual borrowings.
