Abstract

LanguaL™ is a multilingual, facetted thesaurus created to describe foods in a systematic way. Originally developed in the US more than 30 years ago, LanguaL has been managed by the European LanguaL™ technical committee since 1999. Proposals for new terms or clarification of existing terms are submitted by LanguaL™ users and published on the LanguaL™ website for discussion. This year, descriptors were added for indexing dietary supplements. LanguaL™ 2010 also includes new descriptors for USDA SR24, revised fish and plant species information with links to authoritative sources, and an update of food additive information.
