"Dictionary of synonyms of the Siberian dialect", which doesn't have
analogs in Russia and abroad, the press service of the higher education
institution reported on Thursday.

university. The collection continues the multivolume series Vershininsky
dictionaries – the project on studying of one of Russian century-old
traditional dialects of the Middle Priobye (a dialect of the villages
Vershinino, Baturino and Yarskoye).
"Synonymous
dictionary is the most difficult type of the dictionary because of the specific
structure and semantics of the word, its unsteadiness, mobility, insufficient definiteness.
Such dictionary on dialect material is even more difficult. And not
incidentally there are no published dialect dictionaries of synonyms in
Russia", – it is said in the message.
