New Dictionary for neologisms by Termcat

The "Nou diccionari de neologismes", elaborated by Termcat and edited by Edicions 62, supported by the Department for Culture of the Generalitat de Catalunya and the Council for Culture of the Balearic Government, has compiled 4,277 neologisms in Catalan (new words) that have been normalised between 1986 and 2000.

The terms are presented alphabetically, with the equivalents in Castilian Spanish, French and English, an indication of the topic field it belongs to and the definition, plus other items of interest.

The new publication will be presented on Thursday, March 29 at 7 p.m. at the Fundación "la Caixa", plaza Weyler, 2 in Palma. The ceremony will be attended by the Councillor for Education and Culture of the Balearic Government, the Councillor for Culture of the Catalan Generalitat and Professor Sebastià Serrano, professor for General Linguistics at the Barcelona University, who will give a conference on "Terminologia, comunicació i cultura".
