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 alphabetical index pages shown at the top of this page.

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"!
