10. Summary of the thesis results:

This thesis delves into the two-sided structure (macro-structure and micro-structure) and, through this, points out the interconnected relationship (horizontal and vertical axis relationships) of the published Dictionary of Historical Military Place Names. Understanding theoretical issues in lexicography such as characteristics, functions, classification, structure, and types of definitions in dictionaries is essential. The Dictionary of Historical Military Place Names is a specialized encyclopedic dictionary with its own unique characteristics; therefore, it will have a unique way of presenting its two-sided structure.

This thesis addresses the systematic nature of the Dictionary of Historical Military Place Names, a fundamental and important principle governing the search and construction of compilation methods in dictionaries in general and the Dictionary of Historical Military Place Names in particular. Highlighting the two-way flow of information will further clarify the information guidance system that the authors adhered to when undertaking the compilation (preparing the outline, building the corpus, presenting entry units, transferring notes, etc.).

11. Practical applications:

The research findings of this thesis will help authors be more proactive in compiling similar specialized encyclopedic dictionaries, avoiding unnecessary errors.

The research results contribute to the preservation and safeguarding of the historical traditions of nation-building and national defense of the Vietnamese people.

12. Directions for further research:

The results of this thesis will also help to expand research topics on this issue in other fields (beyond the military), enriching the body of knowledge dictionaries.

13. Published works related to the thesis: None
