Abstract
This paper analyses the structural correspondence between English and Japanese terminologies. Terminologies contain many complex terms, and each constituent element of terms represents an important conceptual feature. We investigated the structural correspondence by (a) constructing a terminology network for English and Japanese separately, (b) identifying structural characteristics of the network by decomposing the network into components, and (c) analysing the degree of correspondence among components in English and Japanese. We used terminologies of two domains, i.e. computer science and economics.
