IATE

IATE (= “Inter-Active Terminology for Europe”) is the EU's inter-institutional terminology database. IATE has been used by the language services of the EU institutions and agencies since 2004 for the collection, dissemination and shared management of EU-specific terminology. A new version of the system was released in November 2018.

IATE is a living database, i.e. translators and terminologists are continuously updating its content. In 2018, over 130 000 new terms were added and over 860 000 existing terms where modified. Most of these changes were also reviewed and validated. Using the IATE search interface or the public IATE search APIs thus ensures that you are accessing the most complete and up-to-date data. However, in order to cater for specific needs, you can also download a copy of some of the data contained in IATE together with the extraction tool IATExtract for a convenient data filtering.
