Good work! You’ve acquired a lot of knowledge in this module. Now you know about structuring specialized knowledge!

The importance of basing your terminology research on carefully selected sources of information should be clear to you now. You’ve probably also realized that you need to analyze your specialized subject field’s concepts and their relationships in order to ensure that your coverage of the subject field is adequate and that you have accurately identified the terms that designate these concepts within one language or across two or more languages. You have also learned more about identifying and creating terms and sorting through related terms.

Now that you’ve learned about the guiding principles for terminology research, you may want to move on to the module on methodology so you can learn how these rules are implemented, or you may select another lesson that addresses your immediate needs.
