Common French Translation
The Common French Translation community content extension is no longer being actively maintained.
The project served its purpose and has since resulted in considerable translation of SNOMED CT into French and has been incorporated into French speaking country national extensions including Belgium, Canada, France and Switzerland.
However, the group still meets in order to work together on translataion and editorial guidelines and tackle any challenges together.
Introduction
The French Translation Collaboration Group of SNOMED International joins the efforts of several countries where the French language is in use, to build a common French translation of SNOMED CT usable everywhere in the francophone space of SNOMED International's membership. This common French translation has merged the former partial French translations, and continues to grow in volume and quality in the hands of this group. Furthermore, this group aims at facilitating the usage of SNOMED CT in francophone areas, for instance by translating to French e-learning courses and other documents supporting this usage.
