1.3.1 Definition of an entry
Section 2 comprises a number of entries. Each entry consists of a set of essential elements that includes an index number, a term designating the concept (the preferred term), possibly accompanied by synonyms or abbreviations, and a phrase defining the concept. In addition, an entry may include examples, notes or illustrations to facilitate understanding of the concept.
Occasionally, the same term may be defined in different entries as described in 1.3.5.
Other terms such as vocabulary, concept, term and definition, are used in this part of ISO/IEC 2382 with the meaning defined in ISO 1087.
1.3.2 Organization of an entry
Each entry contains the essential elements defined in 1.3.1 and, if necessary, additional elements. The entry may contain the following elements in the following order:
a) an index number (common for all languages in which this part of ISO/IEC 2382 is published);
b) the term or the generally preferred term in the language. The absence of a generally preferred term for the concept in the language is indicated by a symbol consisting of five points ( ); a row of dots may be used to indicate, in a term, a word to be chosen in a particular case;
c) the preferred term in a particular country (identified according to the rules of ISO 3166). In that case, it is the responsibility of the national body of that country to determine the equivalent (preferred) term in the languages of the country.
d) the abbreviation for the term;
e) permitted synonymous term(s);
f) the text of the definition (see 1.3.4);
g) one or more examples with the heading “Example(s)”;
h) one or more notes specifying particular cases in the field of application of the concepts with the heading
“NOTE(S)”;
i) a picture, a diagram, a table, or another designation which could be common to several entries.
1.3.3 Classification of entries
A two-digit serial number is assigned to each part of ISO/IEC 2382, beginning with 01 for “Fundamental terms”.
The entries are classified in groups to each of which is assigned a four-digit serial number; the first two digits being those of the part of ISO/lEG 2382. Each entry is assigned a six-digit index number; the
first four digits being those of the part of ISO/IEC 2382 and the group. To show the relationship between versions of ISO/IEC 2382 in various languages, the numbers assigned to parts, groups, and entries are the same for all languages.AS NZS 5121 pdf download.
