GLOSSARIES

A glossary is a list of terms in a particular domain of knowledge with the definitions for those terms. In a more general sense, a glossary contains explanations of concepts relevant to a certain field of study or action. Babel Linguistics constantly works with glossaries for the translation of very technical data. Over the years, we have created dozens of multilingual glossaries. Because we believe glossaries are essential in helping individuals to make sense of texts, we would like to contribute with some of our work to other linguists and people in general who would benefit from a consultation.

The following glossaries, listed by industry, are available for consultation at no charge:
