Summary/Abstract: In the Romanian area, many scholars have analysed the language specific to the field of information and communication technology (ICT) in relation to only one side of it, terminology, and to one type of terms, borrowings from English. The other features of this very rich and dynamic field of knowledge have remained quite untapped. Based on a parallel corpus of actual general use English texts and their translations into Romanian, this article aims to outline the main types of specialised collocations used in the English language of ICT as well as the main strategies used in their translation into Romanian.
