Translation tool
Updated - Monday 23 October 2006
If you have to index a Spanish or French language document and the agreement in your library is to use English indexing terms, the InterWATER Thesaurus provides you with the opportunity to check the term in the Spanish or the French version of the thesaurus to see what is the equivalent in English.
All descriptors in the English version of the InterWATER thesaurus are followed by [ES] (Spanish) and [FR] (French); in the Spanish version, they are followed by [EN] (English) and [FR] (French); and in the French version, they are followed by [EN] (English) and [ES] (Spanish). E.g. wastage [ES] [FR]
How to use this function?
By putting the cursor on either [ES] or [FR] (DO NOT CLICK!!!!! on it), you will see perdidas de agua (Spanish) or gaspillage (French). If you like to see the translation of a Narrower Term, a Broader Term, or a Related Term, you will have to click on that term first and then proceed as explained above. If you do click on [ES] or [FR] you are transferred to the word block in the Spanish or the French thesaurus.
