The TerlexWeb project within the framework of the Terminological and Documentary Manager of the Applied Linguistics Institute

Abstract

This contribution focuses on the presentation of the GETERDOC platform, an acronym for Gestor Terminológico y Documental (Terminological and Documentary Manager), a tool for terminographic work developed by the University Research Institute for Applied Linguistics (ILA). It is the result of several completed research projects and one currently in progress. The GETERDOC platform is structured around three fundamental pillars that support various phases of terminological work: a metalinguistic and multilingual repository; an application for context searching within a metalinguistic and multilingual corpus; and, finally, TerLexWeb, a manager for terminological entries. Therefore, the main objective of this work is to provide a description of the GETERDOC platform, its configuration, and its various applications. To this end,
we will address the background and the methodology developed for its creation, as well as highlight its potential within the field of general linguistics and terminology, in particular, through two practical examples involving the analysis of two terms: text linguistics and jargon.
