Academic institutions are at the service of the society that welcomes
and promotes them. In Spain, the Valencian Community has a statutory institu tion with linguistic expertise in the language of the region (Valencian/Catalan): la
Acadèmia Valenciana de la Llengua (AVL). This body, established in 2001, after an
initial phase focused on the consolidation of grammatical and lexical norms, con sidered it necessary to create a terminology portal. Thus, 2016 saw the launch of
the Porterval (Portal Terminològic Valencià), consulting software with the aim of
creating a terminological database to account not only for general fields of knowl edge, but also for terms for basic sectors of the Valencian economy, such as agri food and gastronomy; the latter being especially connected to tourism, one of the
most powerful economic areas in the region. In this regard, it should be noted
that 11% of the specialized fields in Porterval are directly related to both sectors,
without forgetting that, in addition, the lexicographic reference work for the AVL,
the Diccionari Normatiu Valencià (DNV), also includes a large number of terms
associated with agri-food and gastronomy. Our study analyses the operation and
methodological aspects of Porterval, and considering the linguistic policy of the
AVL, addresses issues related to the selection of certain lexical preferences over
others (geosynonymy and formal variants). [-]
