Velký obrazový tematický slovník : česko-slovensko-anglicko-německý / Jean-Claude Corbeil, Ariane Archambaultová. (OCLC #954517663)

This picture dictionary includes the words for many categories of things (clothing, house furniture, office supplies, etc.) in Czech, Slovak, English, and German. I assigned the subject heading:

    Picture dictionaries, Polyglot

and then began searching for appropriate classification. Under the heading “Dictionaries, Polyglot”, I found suggestions for two classifications:

  • P361 (General)
  • PB331 (Modern languages)

So which one does this fit?

I checked closer to the root of the Modern Languages schedule (PB) and found the instruction:

Class here works dealing with all or with several of the languages spoken in western Europe (notably English, French, German)

As Slovakia and Czech Republic are Central Europe, I went with the general classification, and assigned the call number:

    P361 .C67 1999
