英文摘要 |
The Environmental Law Standardized English Translation and Bilingual Law Website Search and Software Project was implemented as part of Taiwan's effort to create an English living environment and address the need for enhanced international communication on environmental topics. Conducted in accordance with national English translation standards for laws and regulations as well as accessibility and bilinguality standards for web development as established by the Research, Evaluation and Development Commission, the project greatly increased the number of ROC environmental laws and regulations available in English and further added to the corpus of standardized terminology. The original Chinese laws, English translations and corresponding lexical data was also put into a database and made available online in a convenient bilingual format. The resulting website is expected to provide an effective channel and information-rich interactive platform for local and international communication on Taiwan's environmental laws.
