Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the descriptive approach, which only recently has been more widely used in Lithuanian terminology practice. Terminologists, translators, proofreaders and other practitioners dealing with terminology can benefit from methods and tools that are applied in descriptive terminology management. Furthermore, the approach of descriptive terminology can be adopted for terminology teaching and learning purposes. The paper aims to describe possible applications how the descriptive terminology research (resources, tools and methods) can be used in the terminological practice. Firstly, we introduce resources and tools developed during the project ŠIMTAI 2 (Automatic Identification of Education and Science Terms). The resources and tools have been developed for the semi-automatic analysis of Lithuanian terms: i.e. specialized annotated corpus, tools for automatic extraction of terminology and a tool for semi-automatic detection of knowledge-rich contexts for terms in the specialized corpus, which then can be used for preparing definitions of terms.
