Glossaries

(subject-area specific dictionaries)

The Human-Languages Page , by Tyler Chambers, has links to nearly 2000 language-related web sites, including a few hundred glossaries. The Translator's Home Companion at Language Automation, Inc. also has hundreds of glossaries, sorted by language or by subject . Babylon.com has glossaries of many subjects in multiple languages.

A trilingual Internet-specific glossary is available at the Canadian Bureau of Translation . A tiny bilingual Internet glossary is available at the Biblioth�que de Montr�al .

There have been many great software localization projects in the past, usually specific to a particular computer language or operating system. Their glossaries are also valuable references for Internet and Web. The Microsoft glossaries are standard tools in most software localizer toolkits. Also take a look at Apple , SGI , and Sun . There are language-specific localization tools for Perl , for C, and for Java .
