德国出版的欧洲标准(DIN EN(ISO)和DIN ISO文件)中的术语只有德语、英语和法语三个版本,因此德国标准化协会术语网站的术语和定义只有以上三种语言版本。现在庞大的术语库中加入了第四门语言,2016年6月22日起,网站的术语和定义可用波兰语查看。(不过目前手机应用还未推出波兰语版。)
2012年德国标准化协会推出在线免费版“DIN-TERM”,即德国标准化协会术语库。用户无需注册就可在线免费使用DIN-TERM,里面的术语都按DIN标准和DIN规范进行定义,并提供以上四种语言版本。免费注册DIN-TERMinology 网站的用户享有更多权限,如查看所有定义、注释和举例用法等。有些定义只提供德语版,有些提供两种或更多语言版本,包括有些从德国标准翻译而来的英文术语。网站还提供标准草案和撤销文件。
新增波兰语版本是DIN和波兰标准组织(PKN)之间紧密合作的结果。目前已从波兰标准组织引进了4300多条术语,而且这一数字还在增加。加入词条的波兰语术语已经有德语、英语和/或法语版本,所以大部分术语都有四种语言版本。想查看所有语言版本,点击“全部查看”即可。
网站在增加波兰语版的同时,还完善了其他功能。如今用户不仅可以选择波兰语作为源语或目标语,还可以在“标准委员会”一栏中选择波兰标准组织。选中某个条目后,还可以在该子条目中进行搜索。用户还可以选择标准机构——DIN、CEN、CENELEC、ISO、IEC和PKN。同时,用户可以搜索以上机构的下设标准委员会所定义的术语。
想浏览数据库里的全部波兰术语,先选择“全部术语”,再选择“波兰语”即可。
DIN-TERMinology Portal – now available in Polish
Terms that have been defined in European Standards published in Germany (DIN EN (ISO) and DIN ISO documents) are almost always available in German, English and French. This is why the DIN-TERMinology Portal has always presented terms and definitions in these three languages, where available. Now a fourth language has been added to this extensive terminology database: As of 22 June 2016, terms and definitions in Polish are also included on the online portal. (This change does not yet effect the app version.)
DIN has made its terminology database "DIN-TERM" available online for free since 2012. DIN-TERM online can be used without registration and for free to access to terms that have been defined in DIN Standards and DIN Specifications in the four languages. Registration (also free) to DIN-TERMinology portal gives users access to more extensive information such as the full definition, notes, examples of use, etc. Some definitions are only available in German, while others are presented in two or more languages, including some terms from national German Standards that have been translated into English. Content from draft standards and withdrawn documents is also included.
This addition of Polish terms is the result of close cooperation between DIN and the Polish standards organization, PKN. More than 4,300 terms have already been delivered by PKN, and this number is growing. The Polish terms are added to entries that already have listings in German, English and/or French, so that a large number of terms are available in four languages. To see all language versions, click on "Full view".
In modifying the portal to take account of the Polish terms, a few other functions have also been modified. Not only can users now select Polish as the source or target language, they can also select PKN committees under the filter "standards committee". Furthermore, if a category has been selected, it is possible to search within a subcategory. It is also now possible to select a standards organization – DIN, CEN, CENELEC, ISO, IEC or PKN – and search for terms defined by a specific standards committee within that organization.
To get an overview of all Polish terms in the database, just select "All terms" and then the language "Polish".
