Mots-clés :

The aim of this paper is to present the results of a project the purpose of which is to develop and test a prototype of a multilingual Nordic search interface which may, in combination with existing search engines, give monolingual access to information in several Nordic languages at the same time. The project is carried out by a Nordic research network called NorNa (Nordic Navigator). The languages involved are Norwegian, Finnish, Swedish, Danish, and English, which allows subsequent addition of non-Nordic languages. The ThT system (th standing for thesaurus and t for term), which has been developed specifically for this project, is based on a term bank application provided with additional modules such as a module containing search concepts. The data on which the project is based has been obtained via terminological analysis of a number of parallel corpora, one of them in the domain of the Arctic environment. The overall aim of the project is making the results obtained via research directly useful to trade and industry as well as public institutions in the form of a language technology tool which may contribute to optimum utilisation of Nordic knowledge resources. The project has received financial support from the Nordic language technology research programme of NorFA, the Nordic Academy for Advanced Study of the Nordic Council of Ministers.
