Encyclopedic Dictionary
Posted in Arts and culture on Thursday, January 6, 2005
Rate this article! 
All right, quickly now:
-how many stars is the Big Dipper made out of? How about the Little Dipper?
-what can one find in a stud-book?
-in what book can one find over 200 illustrated maps of countries and continents?
You’d probably have to do about 10 Google searches, about 50 open windows which will make your computer act like it’s having a seizure, and just when you’re about to find the answers, the clock stops ticking and your time is up!
When we often find ourselves in situations which involve trivia contests, or simply when we are tortured by curiosities that threaten our sleep, small encyclopedic dictionary might just be the answer.
If you’re proficient in Romanian or could afford a translator by your side, check out the new, most complete and up-to-date encyclopedic dictionary edited by the Univers Enciclopedic and Enciclopedica Publishing Houses. Over 65,000 articles will provide edification in departments such as neologisms, economical, social and scientific research, with ample illustrations showing the biggest accomplishments humanity has produced.
The dictionary is well bound in a hard cover, and it could be purchased for under 1,000,000 Lei in bookstores or on the Diverta website. If you fancy a 25% discount, then you can go up to the 4th floor of the Casa Presei Libere, where the publishing house conducts its business.
And boy… since we are the proud owners of the Mic Dictionar Enciclopedic and since we do know how cruel this brain teasing is, we are the people with the answers:
1. Curcubata Mare----peak in the Bihor Mountains, the highest in the Apuseni Mountains, composed of crystalline schists. Altitude: 1,849m.
2. Muride----Mammal family belonging to the rodent subclass, (i.e. mice, rats), generally of a small size, with a long tail and a pointy muzzle. Some members of the species are carriers of diseases, such as the plague and tularemia.
3. Freya----in the Scandinavian mythology, the Goddess of Love.
4. Both the Big Dipper and the Little Dipper are composed of seven stars.
5. Stud-book----manual containing information about genealogy and performance of pedigree horses.
6. Mic Univers Enciclopedic contains over 200 illustrated maps of countries and continents.
