Terminologišče - Terminological counselling

Terminology Consulting Service is intended especially for subject field experts, but also for other users who encounter terminological problems, which can be either the search for a term for a new concept that has not yet been named in Slovenian language, or the selection of the most suitable term among several designations for a concept. 

The compilation of each terminological answer is a joint work of all terminologists in the Department of Terminology. Each terminologist prepares their own opinion opinion on a terminological question, based on which a joint opinion is formed. Terminological answers are prepared taking into account terminological principles, i.e. from the point of view of terminological theory. In order to prepare a terminological answer that will really help the user, it is important for the user to provide as much information as possible about the term, especially its definition, but also information about the texts in which it occurs, possible existing designations, foreign language equivalents, etc.

Therefore, please fill in the fields in the form as informatively as possible. The fields marked with an asterisk are required. We will not publish your name and surname and you will receive the terminological answer within a few days to the e-mail address you provided. The questions and answers will also be published in the Terminology Consulting Service for other users to read. Answers to general language questions can be found in the Language Consulting Service.

Ponujena sta dva prevoda, in sicer kombinirani mediji oz. križni mediji. V nemščini so izraz ohranili (Crossmedia), v francoščini so nekoliko...

Opinion of the Department of Terminology: Niti križni mediji niti kombinirani mediji še niso zares uveljavljeni v rabi kot slovenski ustreznik za crossmedia, se pa kombinirani mediji pojavljajo večkrat. Načeloma bi sicer lahko za angleški termin crossmedia naredili slovenski ustreznik križni mediji, ki bi uporabnika takoj...




Varovanec

Description of the terminological problem: Ali je varovanec danes še ustrezen termin? Stroka želi ob prenovi zakonodaje uveljaviti večbesedne termine, ki vsebujejo »nevtralen« in po njihovem mnenju nezaznamovan izraz oseba. Namesto varovanec si želijo uporabljati izraz oseba pod skrbništvom oz. oseba v skrbništvu. Varovanec je...

Opinion of the Department of Terminology: Spreminjanje termina varovanec v drugo obliko odsvetujemo. V terminološki stroki težimo k enobesednemu poimenovanju, saj nam takšni izrazi omogočajo tvorjenje celotne besedne družine. Pri tem ne smemo zanemariti jezikovne gospodarnosti, ki se tudi v strokah (skozi žargon) kaže tako, da...
