Abstract:

The European Parliament (EP) is one of three important institutions of the European Union (EU). The Directorate General for Translation provides the guaranteed high-quality translation of written text into and out of the European Union’s twenty-four official languages. The main role of its Terminology Coordination Unit (TermCoord) is assisting translators with their day-to-day tasks and facilitating terminology research and terminology management in the translation units. There is a special “Interview” post in the TermCoord website which reports the interview with some world-class Terminologists worldwide regularly. This article is based on the interview with Mrs. Toraki, who is a famous Terminologist in Greece. Her main idea about Terminology (theories and practices) is helpful for Chinese readers to know more about Greek Terminology and its practices.

Key words: the Technical Chamber of Greece, IATE, the Hellenic Organization for Standardization, Greek Terminology Network, the prescriptive approach for terminology
