The Dictionary Unit for SA English (a Rhodes affiliated institute based at the St Peter's building at Rhodes) would like your help in improving the user experience of their free online Dictionary of South African English. 

The Dictionary Unit for SA English (a Rhodes affiliated institute based at the St Peter's building at Rhodes) would like your help in improving the user experience of their free online Dictionary of South African English. 

If you do, you'll not only be part of creating an important South African resource, you might win a dictionary in the process.

The DSAE contains a huge collection of quotations from a wide range of South African sources from the 17th century onwards, so, they say, it is much more than just a dictionary. 

"We hope that the content offers potentially valuable material for many domains of research, not simply in the field of language and linguistics. And we know that the opportunities presented by electronic media can make it more exciting, accessible and flexible. 

We’re inviting you to give us your feedback about what features are important to you by completing our online survey

It’ll only take about 20 minutes of your time, and your input will help us to make sure that this unique South African cultural resource becomes a dynamic and accessible source of information. 

We hope you’ll take the opportunity to explore the dictionary, and as our ‘thank you’ for taking part in the survey, there’s also a chance to win one of three copies of the latest Oxford South African Pocket Dictionary."

You can complete the survey here: http://dsae.limequery.com/index.php/survey/index/sid/389438/token/ks736f6jxe7ukht/lang/en
Closing date for completing the survey is 15 April 2016
