As we all know, due to the outstanding ideographic characteristics of Chinese characters, grammatology has a long history in China and is very popular. However, since the late Qing Dynasty, the Chinese-English translation of ancient grammatology terminology, has encountered considerable difficulties. Fortunately, some scholars have noticed this problem. For example, in this article, the following part is the translation of two Berkeley scholars.
In addition, Chinese scholars have also published works. The more authoritative ones include Sha Zongyuan's "A Study on the Standardization of Grammatology Terminology" (Anhui University Press, 2008), and "Linguistic Terminology" by the Linguistic Terminology Review Committee (The Commercial Press, 2011). The former is part of the work of the latter.
"A Study on the Standardization of Grammatology Terminology" can be found in YineShi (Index 引得市). (Comment by Zhao Jinyun)
The terminology of "Linguistic Terminology" can be searched on the website named "terminology online-an authoritative terminology knowledge service platform", by the National Scientific and Technical Terminology Review Committee.

衆所周知,由於中國文字突出的表意特徵,文字學在中國源遠流長,蔚爲大觀。然而自晚清以來的中英翻譯中,古老的文字學術語却遇到了不小的困難。幸運的是,已經有學者注意到這個問題。比如此篇文章,即下表就是伯克利兩位學者的翻譯。
此外,中國學者也有成果問世,比較權威的有沙宗元的《文字學術語規範研究》(安徽大學出版社,2008),語言學名詞審定委員會的《語言學名詞》(商務印書館,2011),前者是後者工作的一部分。
《文字學術語規範研究》可在引得市(Index 引得市)中查詢。(via 趙瑾昀評論)
《語言學名詞》的術語可到全國科學技術名詞審定委員會的術語在綫網站(术语在线-权威的术语知识服务平台)查詢。
