本文档解释了基本概念，并描述了元模型、数据类别和XML样式:DCA（作为属性的数据类别）和DCT（作为标签的数据类别）。它还规定了定义TBX方言的方法。 本文档的读者是任何希望创建一种符合TBX的新方言的人。本文件还可用于分析和理解术语数据收集，或设计符合国际标准和最佳实践的新术语数据库。典型的用户是程序员、软件开发人员、术语学家、分析师和其他语言专业人员。预期的应用领域包括翻译和创作。 本文档详细描述了TBX核心方言。所有其他行业支持的方言都不在本文档的范围内。注:TBX方言由行业利益相关者定义。实现当前共享方言所需的任何材料都可以作为独立的行业规范公开获得（例如参见TBX信息网站[15]）。

This document explains fundamental concepts and describes the metamodel, data categories, and XML styles: DCA (Data Category as Attribute) and DCT (Data Category as Tag). It also specifies the methodology for defining TBX dialects. The audience for this document is anyone wishing to create a new dialect compliant with TBX. This document can also be used to analyze and to understand a terminological data collection or to design a new terminology database that complies with international standards and best practices. Typical users are programmers, software developers, terminologists, analysts, and other language professionals. Intended application areas include translation and authoring. The TBX-Core dialect is described in detail in this document. All other industry-supported dialects are out of the scope of this document. NOTE TBX dialects are defined by industry stakeholders. Any materials needed to implement currently shared dialects are publicly available as self-contained industry specifications (see for instance the TBX Info website^[15]).
