Introduction
Glossaries are specialised dictionaries that contain domain-specific terminology and/or expressions. There are thirty-two glossaries in the CLARIN infrastructure. Most (twenty-two) of the glossaries are multilingual, accounting for 14 language combinations (e.g. English-Greek, English-French), while ten are monolingual, accounting for six languages (Dutch, English, Estonian, Greek, Slovenian, Swedish). In the vast majority of the cases, the glossaries can be directly downloaded from the national repositories or queried through easy-to-use online search environments.
