| 2.1.2 Explanation Section | |
| Explanation | The identification of a relation between a clipped term and its full form enables a database designer to indicate in a machine-readable way which of several possible synonyms appearing in a lex-term entry comprises the base form on which the clipped term is created and vice versa. Ordinarily, both forms will appear in the same language section, although this is not necessarily mandatory. In many special languages, for instance in the vocabulary associated with the World Wide Web, English clipped terms are commonly used in other languages, but the English full form is avoided in favor of a translated or other equivalent full form in the language in question. Hence it could occur that a clipped term cited in a language B is accompanied by a link pointing to the English language full form. |
