Plena Vortaro De Esperanto
''Plena Vortaro de Esperanto'' (PV; en, Complete Dictionary of Esperanto) is a monolingual dictionary of the Esperanto language first published by the Sennacieca Asocio Tutmonda (SAT) in 1930, largely considered the first truly comprehensive dictionary written entirely in Esperanto. History French academic Émile Grosjean-Maupin was the original chief editor of the PV, with additional contributions over the years from Albert Esselin, Salomon Grenkamp-Kornfeld, and Gaston Waringhien. Between 1930 and 1996, SAT published 11 editions of the PV, but following the revised and corrected second edition of 1934, revisions over the decades were infrequent. The most significant post-1934 addition was a 63-page supplemental section contributed by Gaston Waringhien to the fourth edition in 1953. The 1934 edition included 6,900 roots, while Waringhien's supplement added an extra 966.

Esperanto
Esperanto ( or ) is the world's most widely spoken constructed international auxiliary language. Created by the Warsaw-based ophthalmologist L. L. Zamenhof in 1887, it was intended to be a universal second language for international communication, or "the international language" (). Zamenhof first described the language in ''Dr. Esperanto's International Language'' (), which he published under the pseudonym . Early adopters of the language liked the name ''Esperanto'' and soon used it to describe his language. The word translates into English as "one who hopes". Within the range of constructed languages, Esperanto occupies a middle ground between "naturalistic" (imitating existing natural languages) and ''a'priori'' (where features are not based on existing languages). Esperanto's vocabulary, syntax and semantics derive predominantly from languages of the Indo-European group. The vocabulary derives primarily from Romance languages, with substantial contributions from Germa ...

It was first compiled in 1970 by a large team of Esperanto linguists and specialists under the guidance of Gaston Waringhien and is published by the Sennacieca Asocio Tutmonda (SAT). It may be consulteonlinefor free. The term "illustrated" refers to two features: 1 - The use of clipart-like symbols rather than abbreviations for certain purposes (eg, entries pertaining to agriculture are marked with a small image of a sickle rather than a note like "''Agri''." for "Agrikulturo".) 2 - The occasional use of a line-art sketch illustrating the item being defined. These sketches are not used for most entries. The entries that do have a sketch are most commonly plants and animals, and sometimes tools. History Original publication First published in 1970, the PIV has undergone two revisions to date and is considered by many to be ...

Vortaro De Esperanto
The ''Vortaro de Esperanto'' ( en, italic=yes, Dictionary/Lexicon of Esperanto), published by Kazimierz Bein in 1911, was the first monolingual dictionary ever published in Esperanto. It is considered the predecessor of the '' Plena Vortaro de Esperanto'', published in 1930, and of the current ''Plena Ilustrita Vortaro'', whose last edition came out in 2020. The first edition of the ''Vortaro de Esperanto'' was published in 1911, the second in 1922 and the third in 1925 (they were, in truth, merely reprints). Overall 8500 copies of the dictionary were printed; the book was 175 pages long. The only Esperanto dictionary published previously had been the ''Plena Vortaro'', an Esperanto–Esperanto and Esperanto–French dictionary published in 1909 by Émile Boirac; nevertheless, it contained somewhat imprecise definitions in its monolingual section. Esperantologists consider the ''Vortaro de Esperanto'' a valuable source of information about the Esperanto of the early 20th centu ...
