Defining the vocabulary of CI
The dictionary of delight could be a starting point for gathering knowledge about CI. It is a list of terms, most of which have not yet been defined or described. You can add terms to the list and, by clicking on any term, you will be able to add your definition of it. In case you do find a definition that does not correspond to your understanding of the term, don't correct it but add your version of it, specifying your CI background. You can also use the "discussion" tab for questions and comments.
Translation
In order to support cultural diversity within the global community of contact and seeking for a more differentiated apporach to contact terminology, we suggest starting a translation project. For now, this could be done in the dictionary of delight. Click on the term and add the translation along with the language it has been translated to. This project has been inspired by Ayse Orhon, a contemporary freelance dancer from Istanbul, Turkey, who started an english - turkish dictionary for dance terminology.
