Synopsis
Excerpt from Technological Dictionary, English-German-French, of the Terms Employed in the Manufactures: Architecture, Civil, Military and Naval, Civil Engineering Including Bridge-Building, Road and Railway Construction, Mechanics and Mechanical Engineering, Ship-Building and Navigation
There appears, in a new revision, a work which, exactly half a century ago was Offered as the first Of this kind to the technical public, in order to facilitate or to afford the study Of the technical literature Of the three principal languages, German, English, and French, the usual dictionaries having turned out to be entirely insufficient for it. The professional philologers were and are too much strangers to technics to be able to perceive,' with sufficient security, the signification Of technical terms and to translate them into other languages. Therefore, in revising the work before us, a little number Of specialists expert in languages, representants Of science as well as Of practice, undertook at first to compile the words used in technics, then to arrange them according to the principal matters, and thus to distribute them among a greater number Of collaborators, who, on the authority of the study Of the sources, were to fix definitively the translation Of every word into the other languages. At last, a special redaction, who carefully observed the conformity of the work, reduced the compiled and sifted material to the form of a dictionary. At the same time it was acted upon the principle to add, besides the translation, a definition to every word, in order to prevent any doubt Of its signification.
