Dankeschön Darin.
agree Ken Cox : The German terms are *sometimes* used to differentiate between proprietary standards (such as "industry standards") and "independent", national or international standards, but this is not uniform usage, and they are all called 'standards' in English.

Danke theArchers.
agree hazmatgerman (X) : Aber: Standardisierung umfaßt Normung zwar, ist aber nicht deckungsgleich. Normung ist ein festbeschriebenes Verfahren, Standardisierung kann auch mit anderen Akteuren vollzogen werden. GGf. mit Kontext prüfen.
