The
Technical Translator’s Dictionary (in Italian)
This is a work in progress. It is a collection of difficult words that
appear often in technical documents. However, these words do not have
an instant translation, are usually translated incorrectly or upon further
examination give insight into linguistic/translation issues.

Training modules on technical translation into Italian
