Abstract

We report the initial step for the construction of a Terminology reference
guide for undergraduate students of languages, focusing on the compilation
of the study corpus and the terminological records, which precede the product per se. We used WordSmith Tools to extract the keywords in order to, later, become terminological entries. The keywords were selected according to its keyness value (statistical rationale which characterizes the keywords from the comparison of a study corpus and a reference corpus wordlists). For sampling purposes, we show two terminological records and their respective entries.
