Μετάφραση και επιχώρια προσαρμογή δικτυακών τόπων [Translation and website localization]PhD thesis, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, 2012
Subject: The aim of this doctoral thesis was the observation of the adaptation techniques and strategies that localisers adopt in the context of international corporate website localisation when addressing an english, french and greek audience. We examined the way website content and format is transferred in relation to the addressees’ cultural characteristics. Then we tried to find out which verbal means of persuasion are selected with a greek audience in mind and we recognised two main strategies of persuasion. Our main focus was on the study of the metaphorical figure of speech both on a verbal and a nonverbal level of analysis. In our attempt to observe the way optical and verbal metaphors are transferred from one locale to the other we adopted a causative research model which allowed for the connection of adaptation techniques with the receivers’ cultural background. The analysis revealed a tendency of maintaining the macrostructure and culturally adapting the microstructure of the website.

Terminologie grammaticale arabe et terminologie linguistique moderneUniversité Lyon 2, 2010
Subject: This paper analyses the conflict between a grammatical terminology created mainly in Arabic and a translated linguistic terminology as well as the conditions of a re-employment of this grammatical terminology when translating modern linguistic concepts. It pleads in favor of a steady re-use of the grammatical terminology from a translation studies perspective, far from theoretical assumptions widely prevalent in the Arab world, which consider perfect terminology of the source languages, and far from an idealistic vision based on an illusive search for one-to-one correspondence between English, French and Arabic terms within lexicons that do not reflect at all the use of terms in discourse and real communication.

Terminology work – the Swedish way
The Swedish Centre for Terminology, Solna, Sweden
Subject: Not long ago, a series of articles containing agricultural terminology (and even some definitions) was printed on the Swedish milk cartons. This is just one example of what can also be found in the media and in advertising these days. Examples of what could perhaps point to a raised awareness about terminological matters in Sweden. Even though they might not always be referred to as such, to a growing extent, discussions in the media circle around defining concepts, providing definitions or attempting to harmonize existing terms and definitions. More and more companies also provide glossaries on their websites and use terminology as a marketing means, to increase sales. As a national centre for terminology we can only welcome such a raised awareness.

Warsaw: Versita. 2011
Subject: EU law is multilingual and multi-cultural. It is initially drafted in one language, now frequently English, often by non-native speakers and then translated into the other EU languages. Amendments may be proposed that are drafted in a different language. The result is a single multilingual text created in 23 language versions that are authentic within the context of the EU legal order. These circumstances have led EU legal language to develop its own terminology and legislative style as a separate genre.

Translation in context. St Jerome and modern multilingual EU law
SYNAPS – A Journal of Professional Communication, 2012
Subject: This paper reflects on the nature of legal language and in particular the legal language of the European Union (EU) and translation issues that arise in relation to EU law. The avenue explored here concerns ways in which EU legal translation differs from other kinds of translation. Taking a contrastive approach can help to delineate what legal translation ‘is’ and ‘is not’ as compared with other kinds of translation, and that can help us to concentrate more clearly on what it is that places legal language and legal translation apart from other types of text (on legal translation in general, see Šarčević 2000).

How the European Union functions in 23 languages
SYNAPS 28, 2013

First, a general introduction to the EU environment is briefly proposed, with an eye to linguistic implications. Second, the foundation of the system in international treaties is emphasised. The main ones are mentioned and the relationship between EU law and national law and international law emphasised. There are terminology implications as terms move between the contexts. Third, the EU linguistic regime is outlined.

Subject: This paper examines the legal language of the legislative texts of the European Union. This is a specialised domain and one that is of growing importance. There is insuffi cient understanding of the legal-linguistic nature of EU legal language and this paper addresses some general issues starting from a position of personal experience working on the legal-linguistic revision of draft legislative texts prepared through the services of the Council of the European Union. All opinions are purely personal. The purpose is to place EU legislative language in an LSP context.
