INTRODUCTION
As first President Islam Karimov stated “Today the world demands that we should say our word, demonstrate our intellectual capacities,”¹ and that is why “The most important thing for us is to give young people an opportunity to master a certain speciality, to provide them with a reliable start in life”².
The problem of making dictionaries is one of the methods to keep the words in the historical memory. There is a lot of different kinds and types of dictionaries and it plays an important role in improving and increasing lexicographic description language. There are some problems of dictionary compiling.
In order to get to know what are the basic problems of dictionary compiling initially we should know what is a dictionary compiling. So a dictionary compiling means to make a book (dictionary), using different pieces of different information, etc. The work at a dictionary is really huge and it takes a lot of time to compile them. And it consists of the following main stages:
the collection of material;
the selection of entries and their arrangement;
the setting of each entry.
The lexicographer at different stages of his work is confronted with different problems. Some of these refer to any type of dictionary, others are specific of only some or even one type. The most important problems of the former by Ginzburg R. S. are:
1) the selection of lexical units for inclusion,
2) their arrangement,
3) the setting of the entries,
4) the selection and arrangement (grouping) of word-meanings,
5) the definition of meanings,
6) illustrative material,
7) supplementary material.
