A useful source of German, English, Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese translations of the official titles of the new French government headed by Manuel Valls has now been placed online.
They are provided by the terminology workshop of the Groupe de travail interministériel sur la traduction (GIT). “L’objet de ces travaux est de fournir aux institutions et administrations françaises une terminologie commune aux fins de leur communication à l’international“.
You can find the list of official titles on the Legifrance website here.
Wouldn’t it be nice if this great initiative to share up-to-date key official terminology was done more often and more widely?
