STANDARDISING TECHNICAL TERMINOLOGY
A special handbook which should go a long way towards standardising
the technical terminology used in Hong Kong's 10 major industries has
just been published.
It is entitled the "Manual of Technical and Industrial Training
Terms" and has been prepared by the Industrial Training Advisory Committee
group's translation sub-committee.
In one volume, the manual contains the major technical terminology
used in these industries.
A spokesman for the Labour Department said today that the
standardisation of terms was long overdue.
The manual will be a useful reference to all those engaged in the
industries concerned, in particular to management and the people involved
in industrial training, to those engaged in technical education or in
the translation of technical literature, to careers guidance personnel
and to trainees undergoing technical or industrial training courses.
