Howdy, all--
Those of you who do international or multicultural work--including
Agricola searches for items in languages other than English--might
appreciate this URL:
It points to about 400 dictionaries, specialized reference books,
thesauri, etc., in 130 languages. It also points to on-line
grammars, language identifiers, and multi-language dictionaries.
Pretty amazing resource.
NetLingo Dictionary http://www.netlingo.com/
(Internet and computer-related terms, includes a pocket dictionary
you can call up on your Web browser, and it'll sit there for later
reference)
In addition to finding what I was searching for (names of small
grains and farming tools in different languages) thru these
resources, I learned these useful food-related phrases in Klingon:
"Where do you keep the chocolate?"
nuqDaq yuch Dapol
"Am I supposed to eat this?"
Dochvam vISop net pIH'a'?
A tribble-skinner
yIHmey SurghwI'
And the motto of Klingon PR folks for certain corporations that shall
remain nameless:
jIQum 'ej jIHoH
(I communicate and I kill)
peace
