The role of bilingual and multilingual legal dictionaries in translation and legal communication is changing as the availability of various online resources increases. It turns out that most legal dictionaries published in the EU do not meet the standards of an ideal legal dictionary, in which linguistic data are supplemented with relevant law-related information. Furthermore, there is a strong disparity in terms of availability between dictionaries of major European languages and those of languages of limited diffusion. In the Czech context, bibliographic data indicate that a massive wave of legal lexicographic activity culminated around the year 2000. Since then, the trend has been dropping sharply. The authorship of the dictionaries, among which major European languages and Latin predominate, is almost exclusively in the hands of Czech authors. The decline of paper dictionaries does not seem to be fully compensated by online dictionaries for the time being. Yet the potential of electronic platforms for legal lexicography is considerable in terms of capacity, userfriendliness, accessibility and sustainability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Big stone artefacts ('macroliths') in the Sahara during Neolithic times. – Supplementary to size classification of lithic artefacts ("microlithic, megalithic") the term "macrolithic" is proposed. The intended application of such Neolithic "macroliths" in the Sahara seems sometimes to be obvious (cf. handmills or stone axes), but others are still under discussion (cf. tethering stones or up to 1 m long stone poles). Additionally, the author describes a new type of flat, up to 30 cm long tools which are characterized mainly by being curved like a pick axe. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The asymmetry observed in rhynchonellid brachiopod shells has been discussed for decades and continues to attract attention. This noteworthy modification of the anterior margin morphology during the ontogeny has evolved several times in rhynchonellids, and seems to reflect a genetic basis. First, we try to clarify the terminology regarding asymmetrical, dissymmetrical and symmetrical shells that has existed since the beginning of the 20th century. The Cretaceous populations observed clearly exhibit antisymmetry (also called random asymmetry). During the Cretaceous, some populations of Cyclothyris McKoy, 1844 include a mixture of truly asymmetrical specimens and others that exhibit an intermediate degree of asymmetry, herein called atypical morphologies. Shapes of specimens coming from two different locations in France were captured using geometric morphometrics. We used the range of different morphologies: 1) to test alternative hypotheses about the ontogeny of asymmetry; 2) to test for the possibility of several morphogroups; and 3) to discuss the determinism of the asymmetry.

La métaphore, un phénomène extrêmement varié, a été traitée non seulement dans le contexte de la poésie et de la rhétorique, mais aussi dans le domaine de la terminologie. Outre les métaphores d’ornement, la langue regorge de metaphors lexicalisées remplissant la fonction dénominative que les terminologues reconnaissent depuis longtemps comme une source importante de termes. De même, la métaphore filée se retrouve couramment dans la langue spécialisée, que ce soit au niveau du lexique ou au niveau du texte, remplissant plusieurs fonctions. L’article se propose d’étudier le rôle de la métaphore filée utilisée à des fins de dénomination dans les terminologies spécialisées de certains domaines (linguistique, informatique, génétique et économie) en tant que catachrèses approuvées par les communautés savantes et légitimées par leur usage terminologique, ainsi que son utilisation dans des textes de vulgarization scientifique, où elle possède une fonction explicative, servant à rapprocher un domaine de spécialité inconnu au travers d’un domaine connu et à rendre intelligible le texte spécialisé au destinataire.

Cette contribution se propose de faire une revue de la littérature portant sur les lexiques spécialisés publiés en tamazight. Elle propose un nouvel inventaire des différents produits terminologiques en distinguant entre les vocabulaires élaborés à des fins aménagistes, considérés comme des outils d’aide à la traduction, c’est-à-dire de production /encodage, et les terminologies d’apprentissage destinées aux apprenants et qui seraient donc essentiellement des outils de compréhension /décodage. Abstract This contribution aims to present a literature review of specialised vocabularies published in Tamazight. It provides a new inventory of the various terminological works, distinguishing between vocabularies developed for planning purposes, considered as translation and production /encoding tools, and learning vocabularies which are intended for learners and consequently for comprehension /decodi

Technische Texte stellen aufgrund ihrer Fachterminologie, Komplexität, kontextuellen Abhängigkeit und kulturellen Nuancen eine besondere Herausforderung für Übersetzer dar. Ein fundiertes Fachwissen, sorgfältige Recherche und effektive Nutzung von Übersetzungstechnologien sind entscheidend, um eine korrekte und verständliche Übersetzung zu gewährleisten. Aus diesem Grund ist es besonders wichtig Studierenden die Notwendigkeit der Kenntnis der Benennungsbildung deutscher Termini bewußt zu machen. Darüber soll dieser Aufsatz ihre Aufmerksamkeit wecken.

Cet article présente les résultats d’une étude faite sur la terminologie relative à la covid 19 en quatre langues : anglais, français, allemand, roumain. Le but est de voir comment les termes relatifs à cette crise sanitaire ont circulé de la langue source, langue officielle de communication, c’est à dire l’anglais vers les autres langues et la capacité de celles ci d’assimiler les nouvelles unités termiologiques.

The article deals with nomenclatural names of minerals based on proper names of the persons associated with the Czech environment, and provides their etymologies. The names form part of the official mineralogical nomenclature and have been approved by the Commission on New Minerals, Nomenclature and Classification of the International Mineralogical Association, i.e. the authority recognizing the existence of new minerals. In the nomenclature consisting of 5,975 items (as of October 2023), 88 names based on anthroponyms have been identified, formed usually from last names, first names or their combination. These words are neologisms known to a limited number of experts, but they nevertheless rank among full-fledged words of the Czech vocabulary that is closely connected to the history of Czech science.

Die rasante Integration digitaler Prozesse im beruflichen Umfeld erfordert eine kontinuierliche Weiterbildung im Umgang mit digitalen Medien, die zur Entwicklung digitaler Kompetenz führt. Aus wissenschaftlicher Sicht ist die Operationalisierung des Konstrukts der digitalen Kompetenz notwendig, um solche Weiterbildungsprozesse zu untersuchen. Die quantitative Operationalisierung digitaler Kompetenz ist jedoch mit Herausforderungen verbunden, die einen Dialog bedürfen. Dieser Beitrag beleuchtet die Herausforderungen, die sich bei der Untersuchung und Messung digitaler Kompetenz ergeben, wobei Forschung zu Lehrkräften als Beispiel der Erläuterung genutzt werden. Aktuelle Herausforderungen sind (a) das Fehlen einer einheitlichen Definition, Debatten über (b) das Verhältnis von grundlegender und professioneller digitaler Kompetenz, (c) die Begründung von Fähigkeiten, Wissen und Motivation sowie (d) Probleme mit uneinheitlicher Terminologie und Messung, was als jingle-jangle Irrtum bezeichnet wird. Diese Herausforderungen gefährden die Transparenz und den interdisziplinären Dialog. In diesem Beitrag werden daher die Herausforderungen erörtert und einige Lösungen zur Verbesserung der Transparenz und zur Vermeidung von Fallstricken in der Forschung vorgeschlagen. Es werden Strategien vorgeschlagen, wie die Schaffung präziser theoretischer Grundlagen, die Klärung der zu messenden Kompetenzelemente und die Verwendung einer präzisen Terminologie gelingen kann, um das interdisziplinäre Forschungsfeld zur digitalen Kompetenz von Lehrkräften voranzubringen.

Since the birth of the general theory of terminology, there is an obvious need to coordinate and harmonize terminologies of various fields. In order to meet the needs of contemporary specialized communication, it is necessary to develop terminologies in a systematic way and ensure their stability. Terminological standardization is closely linked to the language policy of the respective country. Some of them have authorities responsible for their language policy. Nevertheless, the extent of their intervention in the evolution of the language can considerably differ. Terminological databases rank among the tools used by standardization authorities for harmonization and standardization of terminologies. The article presents the main francophone terminological databases, their main objectives, features, and contents, namely FranceTerm, managed by the Commission d'enrichissement de la langue française falling under the jurisdiction of the French Ministry of Culture, BelTerme, managed by the Direction de la Langue française of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation, TERMDAT, managed by the Federal Chancellery of the Swiss federal administration, TermiumPlus of the Canadian government, and Grand Dictionnaire terminologique of the Office québécois de la langue française.

In the article "Topoi and Toponyms: The Rhetoric of the City in Isa 1 and Assyrian Imperial Practices," Samuel L. Boyd examines the role of the title "קריה נאמנה" in Isa 1: 21-28 and its connection to other aspects of the book of Isaiah. Boyd argues that considering the title is crucial for understanding the rhetoric of the poem in Isa 1: 21-28 and beyond. The article suggests that the rhetoric of the book of Isaiah was shaped by imperial pressure and ideology. It cites various studies and contributions on this topic that deal with the influence of the Assyrian Empire on the city of Jerusalem and social injustice in the city. The text addresses the identity of the Israelites in the face of the Assyrian threat. It argues that the city of Jerusalem has lost its just and faithful identity and is characterized by corruption and oppression. The rhetorical structure of the text reveals God's desire to cleanse and restore the city. The use of certain terms and vocabulary points to the influence of Assyrian imperial ideology. The text discusses the connection between the "faithful city" (קריה נאמנה) and the terms "judgment" (משׁפט) and "justice" (צדק) in Isaiah 1:21 and 1:26-27. It argues that these terms could refer to the ideal king and Zion as his place of rule. It also points to the connection between these terms and the king in Isaiah 11:4-5 and 16:5. The discussion relates to the Assyrian period and the possible influence on the concept of the ideal king. The text addresses the connection between the king of Zion and Jewish society and government. It emphasizes that the qualities of faithfulness, justice, and righteousness are the standards for God's judgment. Those who do not fulfill these qualities will be punished. It also refers to the political concerns related to Assyrian control in the eighth century. The text highlights the importance of Zion as a just and righteous city and the consequences for those who are corrupt. The text deals with various passages from the book of Isaiah, particularly Isaiah 1:21-31. It is noted that these passages may be related to Assyrian imperial politics and contain reactions to them. It is also noted that the passages may have different layers, with some added earlier and others later. It is speculated that the passages may refer to earlier Assyrian rhetoric, but this is not certain. Overall, it is noted that the passages represent a theological reflection on Jerusalem and its cleansing. The section in Isaiah 1:21-26, possibly up to 28, which deals with the "faithful city," is likely connected to other encounters of the prophet Isaiah with Assyrian ideology. The concept of Jerusalem as a "faithful city" has broad cultural significance in the context of the ideology of cities in the ancient Near East. There are parallels between the Assyrian practice of changing the names of provincial towns to demonstrate Assyrian control and the description of Jerusalem in Isaiah 1:21-31. These observations help to understand the rhetorical dynamics of the text. [Extracted from the article]

La traduction juridique peut être définie comme la transposition d’une langue juridique source vers une langue juridique cible, étant donné que la langue reflète l’identité culturelle d’une communauté selon Jean-Claude Gémar, Deborah Cao de son côté affirme que la langue juridique reflète par défaut la culture juridique d’une communauté. Cependant, quand la traduction juridique se contextualise dans un cadre institutionnel cette dernière est soumise à une idéologie régie par une organisation institutionnelle nationale ou internationale, où la notion de fidélité se trouverait à la croisée de l'identité culturelle et l’idéologie institutionnelle.

Im Beitrag werden Überlegungen zum kommunikativen Potenzial der chinesischen Messaging-Applikation WeChat angesichts aktueller Tendenzen von Messenger-Kommunikation angestellt. Es werden die wesentlichen funktionalen Änderungen/Ergänzungen gegenüber der ersten Beschreibung im germanistisch-linguistischen Kontext (Szurawitzki 2019b) in den Blick genommen. Nach der Einführung folgt ein Abschnitt zum Forschungsstand, in dem sich auf einschlägige Arbeiten zu WeChat fokussiert wird. In Ergänzung von Szurawitzki (2019b) werden nachfolgend Bemerkungen zu neueren Funktionalitäten von WeChat getätigt, die so bisher in der Germanistischen Linguistik noch nicht beschrieben worden sind, aber mit Blick auf die Fragestellung und das kommunikative Potenzial der Applikation Beachtung finden (müssen). Im Anschluss daran plädiere ich für terminologische Neuerungen im Bereich der Erforschung von Chat- und Messengerkommunikation, da die sich ändernde mediale Umgebung mit noch mehr multimodalen Möglichkeiten existierende Termini zwar nicht obsolet macht, diese Termini aber meines Erachtens die kommunikativen Konstellationen in ihrer Komplexität nicht mehr abdecken. Auf der Basis des bis dahin Gesagten schließt der Beitrag mit einem Abschnitt ab, in dem die Zukunft von WeChat und Messengerkommunikation vor dem Hintergrund von Trends anderer populärer Applikationen wie z. B. Discord, das ursprünglich ein Tool für Gamer:innen war, auch interkulturell reflektiert wird.
