Subject: RE: [xliff] Adding inline terminology information to XLIFF
Hi Andrzej,
I believe there is a mechanism in XLIFF that allows you to tag terms in the
source and target text: The <mrk> element has a mtype attribute that can
take values from ISO-12620 2.1.11, one of them is "term". As <mrk> also
allows extensions, one could easily add additional information as needed.
Your example could be tagged as follow:
<trans-unit id="1.0">
<source>Remove the left-handed widget from the subassembly</source>
<target><mrk mtype="term" ext:pos="VB" ext:tgt="odlacz">Remove</mrk> <mrk
mtype="term" ext:pos="NN" ext:tgt="leworeczna lydzetka">the left-handed
widget</mrk> from <mrk mtype="term" ext:pos="NN"
ext:tgt="podzespol">subassembly</mrk></target>
</trans-unit>
Maybe a common set of extended attribute for terminology may be created and
used by everyone. That goes back to the idea of developing a library of
extensions for various specific purpose.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
