Genome.gov | Talking Glossary of Genetic Terms

The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) created the Talking Glossary of Genetic Terms to help everyone understand the terms and concepts used in genetic research. In addition to definitions, specialists in the field of genetics share their descriptions of terms, and many terms include images, animation and links to related terms.

Getting Started:

Enter a search term or explore the list of terms by selecting a letter from the alphabet on the left and then select from the terms revealed. (A text-only version is available from here.)

1. The Talking Glossary

   At the bottom of most pages in the Talking Glossary are links to help you get the most out of this glossary.

   Linked information explains how to cite a term from the Glossary in a reference paper. Another link allows you to suggest a term currently not in the glossary that you feel would be a valuable addition. And there is a link to email any of the 200+ terms to a friend.

A Glossary of Film Terms

A Glossary of Film Terms 

A Glossary of Film Terms written and designed for the web by Joel Schlemowitz Filmmaking is an art with a very complex, and in some ways confusing, vocabulary of terms. To communicate with labs, negative cutters and with your crew it is best to know the right term to use. The terms can often be used against someone not familiar with them. An old story goes that a P.A. was asked to bring over a half-apple and returned with a sliced-up piece of fruit. Use this glossary to keep those who would try to intimidate you with the lingo from doing so, but remember too, where you started from and do not use this glossary to become one of those intimidators. This glossary is intended to be supplemental to a film production course. It is a glossary of the nomenclature of filmmaking, not an encyclopedia of filmmaking. Many of the more complex issues have not been given a full explanation: such as the how to of any of the processes defined here. This is a list of simple definitions to help you speak film and find and understand the answers to your questions rather than be the answers themselves. Please note: The Glossary and Index can be somewhat slow to load at first, but once they are in your browsers cache they do speed up a little.
