  In this paper, we want to speculate about the possibility to model all the
currently known/proposed approaches to terminology into a single schema. We
will use the Entity-Relationship (ER) diagram as our tool for the conceptual
data model of the problem and to express the associations between the objects
of the study. We will analyse the onomasiological and semasiological
approaches, the ontoterminology paradigm, and the frame-based model, and we
will draw the consequences in terms of the conceptual data model. The result of
this discussion will be used as the basis of the next step of the data
organization in terms of standardized terminological records and Linked Data.
