According to the website more languages will be added soon. What\u2019s so fantastic about this resource? Well, you can carry this glossary with you as it is also available as iOS or Android app! This glossary isn\u2019t just a list of words. It also includes definitions so you also get a lot of in-depth information to the term too. A perfect resource not only for technical translators but also for students of mechanical engineering. If you want to browse through the complete dictionary, just use the&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.engnetglobal.com\/tips\/glossary.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">search mask<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/km-translations.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/item_glossary.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-798\" title=\"Mechanical Engineering terminology - item\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/km-translations.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/item_glossary-300x170.jpg?resize=500%2C284\" alt=\"Glossary \u2018item\u2019 with definitions in English and German\" width=\"500\" height=\"284\" style=\"border: 0px;float: none;margin-right: auto;margin-bottom: 1.5em;margin-left: auto;text-align: center\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/en.dictindustry.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">N\u00b0 4: DictIndustry<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>This&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/en.dictindustry.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">technical dictionary<\/a>&nbsp;is not only a dictionary with mechanical engineering terms but also contains example sentences with the term you\u2019re looking for.

This database has been created by the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission). The IEC is an organization which prepares and published international standard. So this database is quite reliable as it only contains international electrotechnical vocabulary. You can look up terms including their definitions in the following languages:&nbsp;<span style=\"font-weight: 700\">English, German, French, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Finnish, Italian, Japanese, Norwegian, Swedish, Serbian, Slovenian, Polish, Russian, Portuguese<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.din-term.din.de\/cmd?contextid=dinterm&amp;level=tpl-home&amp;languageid=en\" target=\"_blank\">My Number 1: The DIN-TERMinology Portal<\/a><\/h3>\n<p id=\"attachment_796\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/km-translations.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DIN_glossary.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-796 size-medium\" title=\"Mechanical Engineering terminology - DIN-TERMinology Portal\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/km-translations.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DIN_glossary-300x246.jpg?resize=300%2C246\" alt=\"Search Mask of the DIN-TERMinology Portal\" width=\"300\" height=\"246\" style=\"border: 0px;width: 310px;float: none;text-align: center\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Search Mask of the DIN-TERMinology Portal<\/p>\n<p>This&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.din-term.din.de\/cmd?contextid=dinterm&amp;level=tpl-home&amp;languageid=en\" target=\"_blank\">DIN-TERMinology Portal<\/a>&nbsp;is my all-time favourite: it contains only DIN terms, definitions and is also available as app for my Smartphone.
