Abstract: This paper presents a model for the description of terms and term variants in technical e-dictionaries designed for professional translators and technical writers. The paper introduces a concept of variation as a phenomenon affecting (quasi)synonymous terms and terminological word combinations with morphological affinity, and provides an overview of the methodological steps involved in ontological/semantic systematisation, in morphosyntactic analysis of terminological variants and in the following data formalisation. The model is based on a multi-layered formalisation procedure that includes the compilation of a coherent domain ontology, the identification of domain-specific frames and frame elements, and the description of term variants along a previously designed morphology-oriented typology. The paper also discusses visualisation options and search query types in the final e-dictionary. Examples are taken from German and English terminology related to thermal insulation products, with the purpose of hinting at the general applicability of the model to other technical subfields.
