[Norwegian nomenclature in immunology].
Immunology represents one of the medical disciplines that has witnessed the fastest growth in new knowledge in recent decades. In the international journals the new concepts are introduced using English terminology. Norwegian immunologists are almost exclusively exposed to English immunological literature, and are therefore prone to adopt English rules of syntax when translating this literature into Norwegian. Two years ago a nomenclature-committee was established, with the mandate to ensure improved translations and, where relevant, to point out rules of syntax. The article presents the results from the work of this committee.
