| | sortKey | contains a (sortable) character sequence reflecting the
entry's alphabetical position in the printed dictionary.| Zustand | Optional | | Datentyp | | | Werte | any sequence of characters which, when sorted with the
other values, will produced the desired order; specifics of sort
key construction are application-dependent. | | Anmerkung | Dictionary order often differs from the collation sequence of
machine-readable character sets; in English-language dictionaries, an
entry for 4-H will often appear alphabetized
under ‘fourh’, and McCoy may be
alphabetized under‘maccoy’, while A1,
A4, and A5 may all appear
in numeric order ‘alphabetized’ between ‘a-’
and ‘AA’. The sort key is required if the orthography of the
dictionary entry does not suffice to determine its location. |
