Sumario:[EN] The debate on the presence of specialized vocabulary in general dictionaries is still not over. In this regard, regional lexicography —both differential and comprehensive lexicography— is in a very similar situation. Whereas dictionaries of regionalisms are governed by the principles of contrastiveness and differentiation, due to the fact that they deal with a vocabulary more patently clear to the average speaker, technical dictionaries, or any other sociocultural variation, are generally conceived as comprehensive, that is, they do not exclude from their lexicon terms or words which for one reason or another have been included in a general dictionary. This means that dictionaries of geolinguistic variations are not self-sufficient, whereas dictionaries with socio-cultural variations allegedly are. I believe that a revision of the criterion of lexical selection imposed by regional lexicography in the so-called popular nomenclatures is necessary, that is, vocabulary of agriculture, mining or of any other speciality.
