Merged
Conversation
…cs (Q141645945) Adds `aala_interdisciplinary_linguistics`: معجم المصطلحات البينية: مجال اللسانيات (المجمع الجزائري، 2026), the trilingual Arabic/English/French dictionary of the Algerian Academy of the Arabic Language. - 102 terms, extracted from the public API behind https://bayni.aala.dz/browse (every published entry). - `description` is the entry's definition as plain text; `uri` links to the entry page; `page` is the page of the entry in the printed book (27-174), matched on the English and French headwords. - Headwords only: the alternative equivalents the site lists as synonyms are not folded into the term columns. - Homograph indices are written "(1)" / "(2)" instead of a glued digit, so that the words stay searchable. - `dict_type` is `terminology`, `tier` is 2.

This applies to the six sense pairs (deep structure, surface structure, mapping, coda, stereotype, prescribed) and keeps the words searchable in FULLTEXT.ُبُطْء→بُطْء(a stray damma before the first letter) andبنيّة عميقة→بنية عميقة(the second sense of the same entry already spells itبنية).stereotype,gravity modelandiamb/iambeget a capital first letter, like the other headwords.C₆¹²,Xₙ₊₁).
