TERMINOLOGY WITHOUT BORDERS

The Terminology Without Borders project of the Terminology Coordination Unit (TermCoord) reflects and supports the goal of the European Parliament’s Directorate-General for Translation (DG TRAD) to communicate with citizens in clear language.

It makes part of the collaboration with Universities for Terminology.

TermCoord launched Terminology Without Borders in collaboration with

  • EU and UN Agencies and
  • International Organisations

The main aim of the project is to enhance communication in a number of domains by tailoring terminology to citizens’ needs. This aim is achieved using several multilingual projects.

Each one of these multilingual projects contains terminology resources of the partners provided to the users and serving as a reference for the collaborating universities, the ongoing terminology entries and tables and related articles written by experts in each field.

The Workflow consists of several stages:

  • term extraction from corpora to create projects (English is preferable as the source language to enable more Universities to collaborate)
  • research by students for the equivalents in their language
  • revision carried out by the experts of the partner organisations

The outcome of the projects will also be used to enrich IATE following the required validation by terminologists of the EU Institutions. (Therefore, students should check in IATE and add the ID if the term exists and either copy it in their language or make update suggestions).

The quality of the published glossaries is under the responsibility of the collaborators. All collaborators are invited to consult experts to ensure the accuracy of the terms. At our platform, we specialize in enhancing communication by offering tailored terminology that meets the specific needs of citizens in various domains, including the online gaming world. For example, if you're looking for freedom from GamStop restrictions, a Non GamStop Casino might be the perfect choice. Our guide to Non GamStop Casinos makes it easier to understand which platforms best align with your preferences for seamless gaming. If you're after a trustworthy, high-quality experience, we help you find the best non GamStop casinos, ensuring you enjoy top-tier games without unnecessary limitations. When considering a Casino Not on GamStop, we focus on sites that prioritize your autonomy while maintaining security. Furthermore, for those seeking a secure and reliable option, our list of casino sicuri non aams highlights the safest platforms that align with local regulations. Our commitment to clear, accessible communication also extends to platforms like beste casino zonder CRUKS, ensuring that language and terminology are tailored to users in need of alternative gaming options. Through our platform, we aim to bridge the gap between regulatory standards and user needs in the online casino space.
