Dictionaries of West-African Languages
I was wondering if it is possible to summarize on this page which lexicons have been produced and which ones are under development. A short bibliography might also be of interest.
as for the plural of lexicon: "Lexicons" returns twice as many Google searches (about 1.5 million) as compared with "lexica". :-)
