Terminology

Are you tired of seeing different translators produce inconsistent results from similar texts?

Do you want to improve the quality and reliability of your translations across the board?

The secret lies in effective terminology management.

Why is terminology management important?

• Consistency: Using the same terms across all documents builds clarity and trust with your clients.
• Accuracy: Precise terminology reduces misunderstandings and improves regulatory compliance.
• Efficiency: Avoid repeated research and corrections, saving both time and money.
• Strengthens brand voice: Consistent terminology helps customers instantly recognise and trust your message in every interaction.

Together, we can develop, and carefully maintain, a glossary or termbase tailored to your exact needs.

I have experience creating glossaries and termbases across a wide range of fields, from linguistics and paddlesports to medicine and pharmaceuticals. I also specialise in the regional variations of English, Spanish, and Catalan; recognising the diverse way languages are used around the world.

Services

• Database Maintenance / Development
  An ongoing retainer scheme for those who already have a database, but need regular maintenance to keep it current, accurate, and free from “rogue” entries. This is especially valuable for larger organisations used computer-aided translation (CAT) tools.
• Glossary creation
  When a simple list is all you need. Glossaries can be as straightforward as a set of terms in one or more languages, or more detailed depending on your requirements.
• Database creation
  For those regularly working with CAT tools, a termbase is the ideal solution. This is your fully customised, feature-rich glossary designed that automatically suggests approved terms as you work. Save time, reduce errors, and let the software do the heavy lifting.
