【辭典】lexicographer  字典編纂者、字典編輯者

但,當申請人自己當作字典編輯者,重新定義特定請求項之用語,使用偏離它們的通常意思時,他必須於書面揭示中清楚地說明其意圖。

When a patentee acts as his own lexicographer in redefining the meaning of particular claim terms away from their ordinary meaning, he must clearly express that intent in the written description. See, e.g., Bell Atl. Network Servs. v. Covad Communications Group, Inc., 262 F.3d 1258, 1268 (Fed. Cir. 2001).
