 ENGLISH-PORTUGUESE EQUIVALENTS OF FORESTRY AND CONSERVATTON
TERMS
John K. Francis
FOREWORD
Signs of deterioration of the global environ-
ment and threatened destruction of the vast
Amazon forest have stirred a call for action.
Conservationists have always been concerned
about the tropical forests; now funds are being
made available for increased work on problems
in the region. Brazilian scientists struggle to
communicate with colleagues in the rest of the
world while scientists from other areas are dis-
covering that to work effectively in Brazil, one
must speak Portuguese. One must also be able
to read Portuguese to benefit from the local tech-
nical literature.
English-speaking scientists have not pre-
pared themselves particularly well in other lan-
guages. It was presumed by many that anything
important would be published in English, or at
least it would be translated into English. Also,
Portuguese is generally given a priority some-
what below Spanish, French, and German in
forestry and conservation literature, thus few
scientists make an effort to study it. Portuguese-
speaking scientists and conservationists, on the
other hand, are handicapped by limited litera-
ture in their own language and a technical vo-
cabulary that is not yet fully developed.
The International Institute of Tropical For-
estry of the U.S. Department of Agriculture,
Forest Service has been mandated to carry on
John K. Francis is a research forester at the International Institute of Tropical Forestry, U.S. Dcpauuncnt of Agriculture, Forest
Service, Rio Piedras, PR 00928-2500; in cooperation with the University of Puerto Rico, Rio I’ictlras, PR 009364984.
cooperative research and technology transfer in
the Amazon Basin. This dictionary of forestry
and conservation terms has been prepared to aid
in communications with our Portuguese-speak-
ing colleagues and for the benefit of others fac-
ing similar language barriers.
Forestry and conservation are very broad
fields, which include many subfields that have
large and detailed vocabularies. I have attempted
to collect the most common and useful of these
terms and determine the equivalencies in English
and Portuguese. In many cases, several terms
denote the same concept. They will be listed
separately, alphabetically in the primary lan-
guage (left hand column), and in series in the
secondary language (right hand column) with the
most common term placed first. In a few cases,
where specific terms do not exist for a concept
in the secondary language, a definition is given.
Definitions are not included in the primary lan-
guage list. Foreign words (borrowed from an-
other language), which are used to denote cer-
tain concepts in technical literature in Portu-
guese, will be given in quotations. Foreign words
that have become a part of the language, espe-
cially where Portuguese spelling has been ap-
plied, are listed without distinction.
Several sources were used to collect the
terms used in this publication. The glossaries and
dictionaries used are referenced below. The ma-
jority of the terms included were collected from
technical literature published in Portuguese; that
is, the context of their use suggested their equiva-
lence in the English language. Additional terms
were defined through personal communications
with Portuguese-speaking professionals.

APRESENTACiiO
OS sinais de deteriora@o do ambiente glo-
bal e ameacas da destrui@o de vasta floresta
amazonica tern provocado urn movimento em
dire@0 a acao. OS conservacionistas sempre se
preocuparam corn a floresta tropical; agora a
disponibilidade de fundos estao possibilitando
urn trabalho mais abrangente na regiao. OS
pesquisadores brasileiros est5o lutando para
melhorar a comunicac2o corn seus colegas em
outras partes do mundo. Estes, por sua vez, estao
descobrindo que para trabalhar eficazmente no
Brasil, C precise saber falar portugues e que para
ter acesso a literatura tecnica local, devem sa-
ber l&la.
Pesquisadores da lingua inglesa usualmente
nao tern tido urn born preparo em linguas
extrangeiras. 0 pensamento, ainda que Co
verbalmente manifesto, era que qualquer
literatura importante seria publicada em ingles
ou que pelo menos seria traduzida para o ingles.
Outro fator complicante e que 0 portugues estri
em prioridade inferior em rela@o ao espanhol,
ao franks, e ao alemrio-poucos pesquisadores
extrangeiros encontran tempo para estuda-lo.
Pesquisadores e conservacionistas de lingua
portuguesa, por outro lado, se encontram em
desvantagem por estarem limitados a uma
literatura publicada em portugues e a urn
vocabulario tecnico q u e a i n d a n5o estri
completamente desenvolvido.

Unidos tern entre suas metas o desenvolvimento
de pesquisas em coopera@ e a transferencia
de tecnologia na bacia amazonica. Preparei este
dicionkio de termos tecnicos em silvicultura e
conservacao para facilitar a comunica@o corn
nossos colegas que falam portugues e para
beneficiar outras pessoas que estao enfrentando
barreiras de idioma similares.
A silvicultura e a conserva@o sao areas de
estudo muito amplas estan.do ligadas a urn
vocabul&rio amplo e precise ern suas muitas sub-
areas. Para atingir O S propositos d e s t a
publica@o, eu procurei coletar OS termos mais
comums e titeis e determinar OS equivalentes nos
dois idiomas. Em muitos cases, verificei que
existem varies termos para descrever o mesmo
conceito. OS termos a serem traduzidos estso
listados individualmente, em ordem alfabetica,
na coluna do lado esquerdo e em sequsncia no
idioma traduzido na coluna do lado direito,
sendo que o termo mais comum e apresentado
em primeiro lugar. Em algums cases, onde nZo
existem termos especificos para urn dado
conceito, uma definicao do termo C apresentada.
OS termos da coluna do lado esquerdo nao
incluem definicoes. Quando Lermos extrangeiros
Go usadas para denominar certos conceitos em
portugues, OS mesmos estao colocados entre
aspas. Por outro lado, termos extrangeiros que
se incorporaram ao idioma portugues,
especialmente quando uma grafia propria se
aplica, s20 apresentados sem distinsao.
V&as foram as fontes usadas na coleta dos
termos incluidos nesta publi$ao. Alguns
glossaries e dicionarios foram valiosos
(referencias sao apresentadas adiante). A maiorfa
dos termos incluidos foram coletados da
literatura tecnica publicada em portugues. 0
context0 do uso destes termos sugeriu o seu
equivalente na lingua inglesa. Termos adicionais
foram definidos em contatos pessoais corn
professionais que falam portuguis.
