Abstract

 

This article aims at presenting a Project called ANACpedia, which is composed of data bases with lists of aviation vocabulary that compose two bilingual glossaries (English-Portuguese/Portuguese-English; Spanish-Portuguese/Portuguese-Spanish) and a list of acronyms in English. ANACpedia has been developed by employees of the Brazilian Civil Aviation Agency – ANAC. Firstly developed to help ANAC’s personnel with issues related to translation of terms, ANAC intends to make ANACpedia available at the Internet to benefit the Brazilian aeronautical community as well as the international aeronautical community.

RESUMO: Este artigo pretende apresentar o Projeto chamado ANACpédia, base de dados formada por vocabulário da área de aviação, em forma de listas de termos, compondo dois glossários bilíngues (inglês-português/português-inglês; espanhol-português/português-espanhol) e uma lista de siglas em inglês, desenvolvida por servidores da ANAC – Agência Nacional de Aviação Civil do Brasil. Inicialmente imaginado para suprir necessidades linguísticas do público interno da ANAC, pretende-se que os Glossários sejam disponibilizados na Internet para beneficiarem a comunidade aeronáutica brasileira e internacional.
