[recensere] Company/corporation
In German the word de:Gesellschaft has two main meanings: de:Gesellschaft (Soziologie) (in the context of sociologia) and de:Gesellschaft (Rechtswesen) (in the context of iurisprudentia). Latin seems to be similar in this case. The single word societas seems to be a valid translation for "company/corporation". In Langenscheidt I found "societas anonyma" for "Aktiengesellschaft" (en:Joint stock company), so the single word "societas" seems to be "Gesellschaft" in the sense of "company/corporation".
Now my question: ;-)
I would like to put
- Yahoo!
- Microsoft
- Fiat
- etc
into a category and would like to have a main page for this category. Maybe:
- de:Gesellschaft (Soziologie) ... "societas hominum"
- de:Gesellschaft (Rechtswesen)/de:Unternehmen/company/corporation ... "societas xy" ... xy = ???
