Traditionally, a glossary appears at the end of a book and includes terms within that book which are either newly introduced or at least uncommon. A '''bilingual glossary''' is a list of terms in one language which are defined in a second language or glossed by synonyms (or at least near-synonyms) in another language. In a more general sense, a glossary contains explanations of concepts relevant to a certain field of study or action. In this sense, the term is contemporaneously related to [[ontology]]. ==Core glossary== A '''core glossary''' is a simple glossary or [[defining dictionary]] which enables definition of other concepts, especially for newcomers to a language or field of study. It contains a small working vocabulary and definitions for important or frequently encountered concepts, usually including idioms or metaphors useful in a culture. In computer science, a core glossary is a prerequisite to a [[core ontology]]. An example of this is seen in [[classes (SUMO)|SUMO]]. ==Searching glossaries on the web== The [[Web search engine|search engine]] [[Google (search engine)|Google]] provides a service to only search web pages belonging to a glossary therefore providing access to a kind of compound glossary of glossary entries found on the web.<ref>[http://www.googleguide.com/glossary.html www.googleguide.com]</ref> ==See also== *[[Terminology extraction]] ==References== {{reflist}} ==External links== *[http://glossarist.com The Glossarist] - Large list of glossaries *[http://www.ontopia.net/topicmaps/materials/tao.html The TAO of Topic Maps] *[http://glossarydirect.com GlossaryDirect] - searchable directory format *[http://www.webdevelopments.de/glossarytool/glossary.html Glossarytool] - tool for glossary generation *[http://www.termbases.eu Termbases] - Make your own public glossaries *[http://www.babel-linguistics.com/glossaries.htm Babel Linguistics Glossaries] Selected Multilingual Glossaries by Industry [[Category:Book design]] [[Category:Lexicography]] [[Category:Published glossaries| ]] [[ca:Glossari]] [[de:Glossar]] [[fr:Glossaire]] [[hi:पारिभाषिक शब्दावली]] [[hu:Szójegyzék]] [[pl:Glosariusz]] [[ru:Глоссарий]] [[th:ปทานุกรม]] [[uk:Глосарій]]
