Abstract

The article presents one of the types of the Polish entries in the 16th century Latin-Polish dictionaries by Bartholomew of Bydgoszcz, i.e. the Polish words and word combinations included in these lexicons more than once. One can distinguish 4 major types of the recurring Polish entries: 1) entries occurring simultaneously in the dictionary of 1532 and of 1544; 2) entries recurring in the major parts of the dictionaries and in the enclosed thematic dictionaries, 3) entries recurring on the same sheet of the dictionary (recto side and verso side), 4) entries recurring on the same page of the dictionary. The recurrences of the Polish entries have various reasons, including the dictionary structures, using a variety of sources, a long period of time over which the dictionaries were created and Bartholomew’s mistakes.
