I know you most likely meant such dictionaries for learners of German as a second language. There is at least one intended for language researchers and language historians: "Deutsches Wortfamilienwörterbuch (Dictionary of German Word Families)" which has 11549 pages and costs a whopping 1.000,00 € / $1,160.00 / £900.00!Speakeasy wrote:My additional searches using the terms “Stammwörterbuch, Kernwörterbuch, and Wurzelwörterbuch” yielded a few root-word dictionaries for Hebrew, Egyptian, and Ido (improved Esperanto) but, rather curiously, none for German.

Re: German dictionary that focuses on roots?
I just received delivery of "A German Word Family Dictionary" by Howard Keller. It is exactly what many students of German have been dreaming of! I cannot fathom why this book is out-of-print. Soclydeza, had you not raised the subject, Daristani would not have recommended it, and I would never had the opportunity to track down a copy of this little treasure. Vielen, vielen Dank!
