About this Glossaries page
Correct and consistent terminology is critical in technical translation, which is why I maintain an extensive database of specialist terminology. This website presents a selection from my extensive collection in a systematic and easily searchable format. The terminology resources on this site are organised into two main categories: Terms and Glossaries.
The ‘Glossaries’ category refers to any kind of terminological resource, whether this be a glossary, termbase, website with terminology, dictionary, term lookup software, etc. A more apt term would therefore be, ‘terminological resources’, but this doesn't sound as snappy. Items in the Glossary category are organised using the following alphabetical index pages:
Index pages: 0-9 · a · b · c · d · e · f · g · h · i · j · k · l · m · n · o · p · q · r · s · t · u · v · w · x · y · z
Searching tips
If you’re looking for a particular term, you have several options:
- Visit one of the alphabetical index pages (see above) to consult the hundreds of glossaries available on this site
- Consult the many individual Terms I have researched
- Browse the various Categories used to organise the data
- Have a look through the Tag cloud
- Try the search box above. Tip: put your search term "in quotes"!
