This paper outlines a proposal for encoding and describing verb phrase constructions in the knowledge base on the environment EcoLexicon, with the objective of helping translators in specialized text production. In order to be able to propose our own template, the characteristics and limitations of the most representative terminographic resources that include phraseological information were analyzed, along with the theoretical background that underlies the verb meaning argument structure in EcoLexicon. Our description provides evidence of the fact that this kind of entry structure can be easily encoded in other languages.
