The Engineering and Construction Terminology project was initiated by the Department of Sport, Arts and Culture (DSAC). The project team developed the English source text in the first phase of the project. The second phase was aimed at providing target term equivalents in 8 official languages; namely Afrikaans, isiXhosa, Siswati, isiNdebele, Setswana, Sepedi, Tshivenda and Xitsonga. The list of all language experts that were involved in the project is on the acknowledgement page. This multilingual term list currently has 400 terms in eight (8) official languages: Afrikaans, isiXhosa, Siswati, isiNdebele, Setswana, Sepedi, Tshivenda and Xitsonga. The finalised term list was then handed over to the National Language Bodies of the Pan South African Language Board (PanSALB) for verification and authentication in the relevant official languages.
