Abstract
Terminology management is the activity of systematically collecting, processing, and presenting words that have special meaning in a given subject field – the emphasis being on the word systematically. The goal of any terminology management effort is to ensure that the words that are most closely associated with a given organization’s products, services, and branding are used consistently – in the source language and in all the languages into which the various types of documents the organization generates are translated into.
