Abstract
A proposal for segmentation and characterisation of the terminographical process, based on Gouadec’s model for translation, is presented in this paper. It comes as a result of a systematisation and comparative analysis of the various existing characterisations of the terminographical process, in an attempt – that has proven to be unfruitful – to identify the one, or a combination of different ones, which would meet the specific needs to build a resource targeted at a non-specialist public. The terminographical process is thus organised in three phases (pre-terminography, terminography, and post-terminography), and comprises three dimensions of analysis (conceptual, communicative, and textual). Broadly speaking, in pre-terminography, a preparatory piece of research is carried out (special subject field familiarisation, communicative contexts identification, and building of specialized corpora), a step which is essential to the next phase (terminography), in which a terminological database is built and populated. The last phase (post-terminography) comprises efforts aimed at the industrial application of the resource, as well as underscoring the need for its continual update. This methodology also takes into account the three dimensions of terms (conceptual, communicative and textual) which are applied and adopted in the process of termbase creation itself.
Keywords:
- terminographical process,
- conceptual dimension,
- communicative dimension,
- textual dimension
Résumé
Dans le présent article, nous présentons une proposition de segmentation et de caractérisation du processus terminographique, basée sur le modèle de Gouadec pour la traduction. Cette proposition découle d’une première systématisation et de l’analyse comparative des diverses caractérisations qui existent pour le processus terminographique, dans une tentative – qui s’est révélée infructueuse – d’identifier un modèle, ou une combinaison de différentes méthodologies, capables de répondre aux besoins spécifiques de la construction d’une ressource visant un public non spécialiste. Le processus terminographique est ainsi organisé en trois phases (pré-terminographie, terminographie et post-terminographie), et comprend trois dimensions d’analyse, conceptuelle, communicative et textuelle. D’une manière générale, en pré-terminographie, une recherche préparatoire est effectuée (familiarisation avec le domaine, identification des contextes communicatifs et construction des corpus spécialisés), étape qui est essentielle à la phase suivante (terminographie), dans laquelle une base de données terminologiques est construite et alimentée. La dernière phase (post-terminographie) vise essentiellement l’application industrielle de la ressource, ainsi que sa mise à jour continue. Cette méthode prend également en compte les trois dimensions des termes (conceptuelle, communicative et textuelle) qui sont appliquées et adoptées dans le processus même de création de bases de données terminologiques.
