Our cooperation with ICLEI

Here you have a 2011 project highlight: our cooperation with ICLEI for the revising of its Portuguese language leaflet translated from English. It followed our linguistic assistance with me as interpreter (English «» Portuguese) to the Director of the Strategic Services of this international organisation during the course of an international seminar during June 2011.

The International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI) is an international association of local governments and national and regional local government organizations that have made a commitment to sustainable development.

Spasibíssima / спасибиссимо: Russian-Portuguese crossover or how to make things a bit more "simple"

I've married on the first Sunday of May this year and for a very special particular we had guests coming in from Russia... To make a long story short it happens that they (three lively girls) found the Portuguese adjective Obrigadíssima [Thank you very much] rather amusing. Explaining in English what it meant I had to say it meant the same as Thank you very much or the Russian Bol´shoe spasibo [Большое спасибо].

As a final note I said it was the same as "spasibíssima / спасибиссимо", the reaction was a loud laugh and comments the rest of the trip. Afterwards it became a nice tag expression for group insiders and more than a week later it still pushes into conversation!!! And the fad is alive... at least over here...

Do know about any other linguistic pearls like this?

Leaflet about the European Association for Terminology (English and Portuguese)

Because one of the objectives of the European Association for Terminology is to promote plurilingualism, I've translated its official institutional leaflet into Portuguese. Until the appearance of the translated leaflet there was no Portuguese-language material about the association... Lets just put this matter into perspective: Portuguese is the seventh most spoken language in the world and an official working language in different international organisations.

The importance of terminology is increasing as it is proven by the growing demands posed by the multilingual information society we live in. A sound terminology policy is becoming all the more necessary for any public or private organisation interested in maintaining efficient internal and external communication. Implementing standards making clear the reference/referent relation will make it easier to create up-to-date, well-structured documents through an efficient and well-managed process, while avoiding unnecessary delays and customer dissatisfaction.

About the European Association for Terminology
The European Association for Terminology was founded in Denmark in 1996, as a non-profit professional organization for the terminology sector in Europe. It is designed to provide a European platform for promoting and professionalising terminological activities and raising public awareness in this regard. Furthermore, the EAFT is committed to liaising and cooperating actively with other relevant organizations, associations and institutions at all levels and to furthering plurilingualism through terminology.


Strangely enough, and despite having been founded in Denmark, the official website features no information in the Danish language.
