Selected Topics in Terminology Work: Best Practices and Beyond

Summary/Abstract: Terminology studies and terminology work are exciting fields of study and practice. Both center around terminologies, which we define here as “structured set[s] of concepts and their designations <…> in a specific subject field” (Ahmad et al. ca. 2000; cf. DIN 2342:2011, 16). Thus, when working with terminologies, we are within a given domain of study or practice that may be easier or less easy to delineate. Activities dealing with terminologies are called terminology work, which we define as “work concerned with the identification, collection, processing, description, presentation and use of concepts and their designations” (cf. ÖNORM A 2704:2015, 6). In the two definitions, the characteristic related to concepts and their designations is of paramount importance: both concepts and designations are dealt with when people carry out various terminology work tasks.
