Linguística de texto de especialidade : o exemplo da Alemanha

Resumo

After a brief introduction to the origin and the definition of specialized languages in Portugal, the research which has been carried out in this area is presented; thereafter the article reviews the work which has been done on this topic in Germany. It concludes that, particularly from the perspective of translation practice, it would be extremely useful to realise the same type of studies in Portugal as have been undertaken in Germany.
