English-Ukrainian Dictionary of Selected Terms:
Science and Contemporary Technologies

Compiled by Anatole Wowk

This unique technical dictionary was published posthumously after the author's death in 1992, and has recently been made available in North America. Nearly 10,000 English words and phrases, representing American usage in science, technology and everyday life, are translated by the author into Ukrainian. Many Ukrainian words are listed in the traditional Ukrainian form that was in use prior to the official Soviet Russification policy of 1933, 1942 and 1960.

From the mundane to the bizarre, something for everyone!
