Terminology Work, Terminology Management, Terminography – Potato, Patato or Not Exactly?
Abstract
This paper focuses on the definitions of three broad concepts of Terminology which are sometimes considered identical, sometimes partly overlapping, and sometimes different – terminology work, terminology management, and terminography. I use the latest editions of ISO standards on terminology work, terminology policies, and terminology products, as well as the two biggest manuals on terminology and terminology management as my research material. The methodology includes textual analysis, concept analysis, and semantic analysis. The referential part is followed by an analytical section, after which a set of principles is established for redefining the concepts, and tentative proposals are made on how they may be redefined.
