　　教育部《重編國語辭典修訂本》收288條宗教類條目，多屬「雙音節、名詞、術語」的佛教用語，基於本辭典的性質與編修原則，宜增補口語性的宗教類詞條。 禪宗典籍《祖堂集》與《景德傳燈錄》是研究近代漢語重要材料，二書反映晚唐迄宋的語言現象，本計畫以二書為對象，為《重編》增補具口語性的宗教詞條與義項。其次，在二書基礎上逐一檢視288條宗教條目的書證，若發現書證時代較晚出，則提前書證；若釋義尚可斟酌，則提出調整建議。 對辭典編輯而言，計畫成果能豐富、完善辭典的內容。對研究而言，有助於認識宗教詞的不同面貌，了解近代禪宗的口語詞。對學習而言，增補的詞條、義項、書證有助於教師查閱與大眾學習。

　　Revised Mandarin Chinese Dictionary published by the Ministry of Education includes 288 religious terms, most of which are two-word terms, nouns, or terminologies in Buddhism. With regard to the attributes of this dictionary and rules of editing, it is suggested that colloquial religious terms should be added to it.

　　Zu Tang Ji and Jingde Chuandeng lu are two important Zen-Buddhist publications for the study of modern Chinese language, as they reflect the language-related phenomena from the late Tang to the Song dynasty. Based on these two publications, this research project suggests colloquial religious terms and their definitions be added to Revised Mandarin Chinese Dictionary. Additionally, this project refers to the two publications to examine the references of the existing 288 religious terms individually. If the reference of any of the terms provided by the dictionary dates back to a time later than the time of the two publications, this project suggests an earlier reference for the term in question. If any of the terms in the dictionary can have a better definition, the project also provides a suggested definition.

　　To lexicographers, the results of this project are expected to enrich the content of this dictionary. In terms of research, the results should facilitate the understanding of different aspects of religious terms through a comparison with colloquial religious terms in modern times. For the purpose of learning, the additional terms, definitions, and references can enhance teachers’ access to lexical information and the public’s understanding.
