Multilingual Glossary of Language Testing Terms Studies in Language Testing 6

Inevitably, it is in the most commonly used languages that the vocabulary of language testing and assessment is most highly developed, and for which most of the literature has been produced. A multilingual glossary has a significant role to play in encouraging the development of language testing in less widely taught languages. The idea of producing a multilingual glossary of assessment and language testing terms has grown out of the needs experienced by members of the Association of Language Testers in Europe (ALTE) while engaged in work on language testing projects. It is anticipated that this glossary will be of use, not only to members of ALTE, but to many others working in the context of European languages, who are involved in language testing and assessment. The glossary contains entries in ten languages: Catalan, Danish, Dutch, English, French, German, Irish, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish.University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndication Staff is the author of 'Multilingual Glossary of Language Testing Terms Studies in Language Testing 6', published 1999 under ISBN 9780521658249 and ISBN 0521658241.
