Terms should be either associated with attributes for related term information or linked to external terminology data. - It should be possible to identify terms inside an element or a span together - with related attributes. - == Background: == + The capability to specify terms within the source content is important for terminology management that is beneficial to translation/localization quality. It facilitates, for example, the creation of glossaries and indexes, and also allows terminology validation between source and target documents. - The capability to specify terms within the source content is important for - terminology management and index creation. It facilitates, for example, the - creation of glossaries and indexes, and also allows terminology validation - between source and target documents. + Terms may require various attributes, such as part of speech, gender, number, term types, definitions, notes on usage, etc. To avoid such a large attribute data is repeated within a document, it should be possible for identified terms to link to externalized attribute data, such as glossary documents and terminology database. - Each term should be accompanied by term attributes depending on - identification purposes. If it's for glossary data, term attributes may be - part-of-speech and a term type, while index terms may have a sorting string. + [Example] + <source>Our guests can appease their spirit of adventure and itchy feet by exploring the various islands of our small '''<its:term cID="1234">archipelago</its:term>'''</source>. + + The term, '''archipelago,''' could link to the following external data: + + [Example] + + <its:termEntry cID="1234ABE34FE"> + '''<its:term>archipelago</its:term>''' + <its:pos>noun</its:pos> + <its:info> + <its:def>Group of island<its:def> + <its:pronunciation>"är-k&-'pe-l&-"gO, "är-ch&-<its:pronunciation> + </its:info> + </its:termEntry> + == Notes: == + Reference to discussions on term links: http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/xliff/email/archives/200407/msg00026.html - Members discussed TMX-Link and TBX-Link as references (see Minutes - 2005-03-03: ITS teleconference), and the both standards should be reviewed - when the solution for this requirement is reviewed. - - '''[CL] Great. Some feedback: - - 1. I am not sure that sth. like TMX-Link exists. - 2. Possibly, we can reuse some of the thoughts from http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/xliff/email/archives/200407/msg00026.html ''' -
