IATE, short for "Inter-Active Terminology for Europe," is a comprehensive terminology database used by the European Union (EU) institutions and agencies. Launched in 1999, IATE aims to provide a centralized and standardized platform for collecting, disseminating, and managing EU-specific terminology. Developed by Konstantinos Chatzitheodorou, this free Chrome add-on falls under the category of Browsers and the subcategory of Add-ons & Tools.
IATE brings together the terminology databases of various EU entities, including the European Commission, Parliament, Council, Court of Justice, Court of Auditors, Economic & Social Committee, Committee of the Regions, European Central Bank, European Investment Bank, and Translation Centre for the Bodies of the EU. By consolidating resources, IATE offers approximately 1.4 million multilingual entries, making it a valuable tool for language professionals, researchers, and anyone working with EU-specific terminology.
With its web-based infrastructure, IATE provides a highly interactive and accessible platform for users to access and contribute to EU terminology resources. It enhances the availability and standardization of information, making it an indispensable resource for those involved in EU-related work.
