The King Salman Global Academy for the Arabic Language, in cooperation with the Digital Government Authority (DGA), is launching the dictionary of "e-government terminology" in Arabic.
The lexicon aims at unifying the concepts of digital government terminology and to avoid their differences and confusion in their translations and ensure the consistency of their use by providing a unified reliable reference for government agencies, researchers, and those interested in the field of digital government.
The Secretary-General of King Salman Global Academy for the Arabic Language, Dr. Abdullah bin Saleh Al-Washmi, voiced appreciation for the support of Minister of Culture Prince Badr bin Abdullah bin Farhan and the chairman of the board of trustees of the academy in launching the dictionary.
He also thanked DGA Governor Eng. Ahmed bin Mohammed Al-Soyyan for his efforts to activate cooperation among public agencies and produce the high-quality lexicon.
The dictionary includes the most important terms used in e-government according to what is stated in the rules and regulations related to digital government and the regulations issued by the DGA, with an interactive digital version to facilitate its use. The lexicon is arranged in alphabetical order in Arabic and English, in addition to displaying other related documents.
Among the expected outcomes of the dictionary are reducing confusion and misunderstanding of terms related to digital government, enhancing clarity and accuracy in communication, and accelerating the pace of digital transformation in the Kingdom.
