[PersianComputing] Persian Academy's computer terms

2003-08-20 Thread Roozbeh Pournader
The Persian Academy has published its first official list of computer
terms that have been finalized (that is, approved by the President of
the Islamic Republic of Iran). The copy I'm holding is labeled second
edition and is dated Dey of 1381 (2003-01). It has an appendix of the
Iranian law on illegality of usage of any foreign words Academy has
passed an equivalent for, dated 1375/9/28 (1996-12-18).

This does not include terms like computer or email that has been
considered *general* terms and were published long ago.

You can buy the physical thing from the Persian Academy's bookshop, on
Ahmad-e Ghasir (Bokharest) Avenue, at the corner of the 3rd Street.

To get to the good part, the word list is available as an XML file from
the address:

http://www.farsiweb.info/academy/comp1.xml

For those who don't know how to handle hot stuff, I've made a very
spartan HTML version available at:

http://www.farsiweb.info/academy/comp1.html

And for those who wonder how I've created the HTML from the XML, the
XSLT file is available at (forgive my incompetence in XSLT):

http://www.farsiweb.info/academy/html.xsl

Oh, the winner of the Funniest Word Award? It's mooshi for mouse!

Hi Arash,

 The same list is also available from www.amitis.org under the terminology
 section.

I couldn't locate the terminology section. Can you give a direct URL?

Thanks,
Connie

Hi Connie,

At this time you need to login to see Terminology. It is part of the 
standard menu for reg. users. The reason you need to register is because 
people are able to submit new entries. We need to change this later so 
that anonymous users can see and reg. users can see and post.

Greetings,
Arash

In fact I'd long been wondering whether anyone was taking on such a
project as this.  Hope you attract lots of high-quality contributors. Do
keep us posted from time to time.
