Terminology

 
 

What is terminology work?

 

Terminology is an instrument for precise conversation in a specific field of knowledge and, as such, indispensable in all areas where a precise flow of information is required — be it specialised texts, contracts or other business documents, in your native language as well as in translations.

 

“Terminology” refers to the specialised expressions of a given field of expertise. Moreover, terminology work entails the collecting, structuring and — if required — creation of terms as well as the creation of single- or multiple-language glossaries and databases to make your terminology easily accessible.

What are the advantages of optimising your terminology?

  • The time and effort required for recurring terminological research during technical documentation and translation are decreased.

  • You avoid queries and damages resulting from false interpretations of imprecisely used denominations and errors in translation due to the unstructured use of terms that are not clearly defined.

  • The terminological quality of specialised texts, for example contracts and their translations, is ensured.

  • Further individual improvements and simplifications of working processes due to an improved flow of clear, unambiguous information.

  • In-house glossaries or terminology databases that can easily be accessed by your employees.

We will be happy to discuss how we can implement the targeted, effective optimising of your terminology and draw up a customised offer for you.
