Shared language harmonization
Shared language harmonization can be understood as the procedures and result of trying to harmonize, as much as possible, different regional varieties of a ‘shared’ language across countries, i.e., in terms of vocabulary and/or structure. An example would be to harmonize translations into Italian between questionnaires used in Italy and in Switzerland.
