Language is business: (Specialized) language as a central chain for economy and society

Abstract

The use of dedicated terminology is a very important aspect of our modern society. In all specialized domains of our economy and industry, terms are used and the collection of terminology grows exponentially with the complexity of our society. Companies who want to obtain a good management of the internal and external communication have to analyze the source language first of all. A strong concept system linked to the correct terminology can optimize the complex communication process. If one considers unambiguous definitions of the most important concepts as the core of the knowledge system of a company, the communication process will run much smoother and this leads to saving time and money.
