Customer-Specific Terminology Databases

A handy reference for improved efficiency

In order to achieve international business success, you must be able to present your brand consistently across linguistic boundaries. A first step is recording your company’s important terms and expressions in a terminology database.

At Translatus, we automatically commit recurring terms and phrases to a database throughout the translation process. Sentence by sentence, this creates a useful reference for your company, which can be used for future projects as well. For each term and each expression, we add the appropriate translation while keeping the specific context in mind. Supplemental information, such as usage examples, pronunciation, comments, images or regional variations in spelling, can be documented as well. We will make sure that your database is always up to date and will work closely with you to develop your terminology over time.

The results of these collective terminology efforts can be shared transparently across business divisions and locations. If needed, language manuals and glossaries can be created with the click of a button and made available to employees on or off site. You no longer have to worry about misunderstandings and translation errors.

This increases your credibility in your target markets and forms the basis for creating a unique, authentic corporate image.

Higher quality, lower cost

Terminology databases help translators work more precisely and efficiently. With a terminology database as a useful reference, they are able to translate more text in less time. And because terminology databases store terms and phrases that have already been translated, you are able to save money on texts that contain many repetitions.

The creation of a customized, internal terminology database requires a close collaboration with our customers. Only terms that have been approved by you will be added to your database and therefore find their way into your documents and their translations. The more information and feedback you provide, the higher the quality of your custom glossary will be.
