Abstract

The article describes a method for bringing a printed dialectological dictionary into a digital dialect dictionary and atlas, together with the quality control of this process. The material is F. Musayeva’s dictionary “O‘zbek xalq so‘zlari” (2023); the target system is the O‘zSheva platform (umidliyoshlar.uz). The method comprises parsing the entries, classifying the regional labels and linking them to provinces, formulating the meanings independently, matching them with existing concepts, citing the source with page-level precision for each variant and assigning a confidence level. Of the 2,084 entries extracted from the dictionary, 548 carried a label in parentheses; 454 of them were linked to at least one province, while 94 labels could not be linked to any province (Latin biological names, places outside Uzbekistan, place names shared by several locations and one district name missing from the district list). The import produced 423 new entries (394 concepts), added 17 words to existing entries as regional variants and created 460 regional variants in total. Quality control revealed 43 errors of five types in Latin-to-Cyrillic transliteration, which were eliminated through rules and tests. The approach allows a written source to be included in a digital atlas without guessing locations or copying definitions.
