Cuando los originales del Engineers Dictionary quedaron listos en 1943, la

segunda guerra mundial estaba en su apogeo y esto llev a la casa editora y al
autor a convenir de que el libro no deba exceder de unas cuatrocientas cincuenta
pginas. Algn material debi ser retirado y aunque el libro resultante trataba
detenidamente de ingeniera civil, no pudo contener muchos trminos usados en
otras ramas de la ingeniera.
Poco tiempo despus de su publicacin yo me retir del trabajo activo de
ingeniera y desde entonces he tenido amplias oportunidades para dedicarme a la
compilacin de un diccionario ms extenso. El material que debi ser retirado
se ha agregado ahora y se ha estudiado una gran cantidad de material nuevo.
He consultado con muchos amigos de la Amrica Latina y en cada viaje he trado
conmigo publicaciones tcnicas de diversas clases como fuente de trminos
espaoles. Constantemente he escudriado las revistas de ingeniera y los
libros nuevos publicados en ambos idiomas.
El campo de accin sigue siendo la ingeniera y las referencias frecuentes a la
qumica, la geologa o la metalurgia no significan que estas materias estn total
mente abarcadas en este libro. Cada una de ellas necesitara un volumen aparte.
Los trminos incluidos de estas u otras materias son aquellos regularmente
requeridos en un trabajo o estudio de ingeniera. Igual criterio se ha seguido en
la seleccin de algunos pocos trminos de finanzas, seguros y transportes.
Al ampliar la obra mis principales propsitos han sido los siguientes:

Abarcar la ingeniera elctrica y mecnica en manera mucho ms amplia.

La radio que no se mencion para nada en la primera edicin ha recibido cuida
doso estudio. Se han incluido trminos importantes de la televisin.
Poner al da todos los ramos de la ingeniera civil. Se ha dado especial atencin
a la mecnica de los suelos, a la fotogrametra y al proyecto y construccin de
aeropuertos.
Incluir los trminos ms importantes correspondientes a minera, arquitectura
naval, explotacin forestal, industria azucarera y campos petrolferos.

Una nueva adicin es la indicacin de gnero de los substantivos en espaol.

El objeto de un diccionario tcnico es proporcionar informacin que no se
encuentra en otra parte. Se supone que el diccionario de Webster incluye todas
y cada una de las palabras del idioma ingls, an las ms tcnicas, pero no abarca
las frases que figuran en glosarios oficiales de las sociedades de ingeniera.
Muchas de las palabras de este libro se encuentran tambin en los mejores
diccionarios generales ingls-espaol. Buttress se encuentra en cualquiera de
ellos, igualmente que thread, pero no buttress thread. Aguja y tambin infernal
se encuentran, pero no aguja infernal. La mayora de mis esfuerzos se han
vii

viii V PREFACIO

concentrado en el registro d significados o equivalentes de locuciones que no

pueden expresarse con una sola palabra.
La nomenclatura de piezas de maquinaria requiere un constante uso de buen
criterio. Cada fabricante tiene su propia lista de piezas para cada mquina
y algunas mquinas constan de tantas que llegan al millar. Las partes principales
de una mquina deben enumerarse y con ellas, fuera de los trminos como
cojinete, leva, tornillo, resorte, rodillo y vlvula, deben identificarse con un
nombre la gran mayora de las piezas componentes.
A pesar de algunos consejos adversos recibidos, yo creo todava que las
definiciones estn fuera de lugar en un diccionario tcnico bilinge. El interesado
que busca en un libro como ste el trmino slvp-ring motor quiere encontrar el
equivalente aceptado en espaol y no una descripcin del motor. Las de
finiciones aumentaran mucho el volumen del libro. La prctica seguida ha
sido la de definir un trmino solamente al carecer de un equivalente satisfactorio
y en algunos casos para evitar ambigedades.
Es obvio que existen en este libro muchas palabras, tanto en espaol como
en ingls, que tienen otros significados adems de los anotados. Se han omitido
los significados no tcnicos, as como aquellos que pertenecen a la botnica,
zoologa y otras ciencias de inters muy relativo para el ingeniero.
Algunos de los trminos de la obra original han sido criticados llamndolos
mal espaol . Un crtico me ha dicho que la incorporacin de tales trminos
a un diccionario tiende a perpetuarlos y a perjudicar el idioma. M i punto de
vista es que la exactitud de los trminos tcnicos en cualquier idioma es esta
blecida por los tcnicos que los crean y los usan, y la tarea del compilador del
diccionario es la de registrar su uso. En esta obra se trata de dar a los tcnicos
de habla inglesa de la Amrica del Norte la terminologa de ingeniera usada en
los pases de habla espaola de Amrica y viceversa. Trminos tomados de
publicaciones oficiales, de especificaciones de ingenieros y de libros de texto se
consideran expresiones usadas y aceptadas . Para muchos miles de trminos
en ingls no hay equivalente en buen espaol si se sigue el criterio de la Real
Academia. Esta es la razn de la diferencia entre unos 125,000 trminos en
el diccionario de la Academia y de unos 500,000 en el de Webster.
Los equivalentes en espaol de marcas de fbrica o de comercio en ingls
presentan un problema. La simple aseveracin de que estos nombres no pueden
traducirse no soluciona el problema, porque muchas traducciones son de uso
corriente en los pases de habla espaola. Muchos de estos trminos ya se han
incorporado a otros diccionarios en espaol o en espaol-ingls. Hay propietarios
de marcas de fbrica o comercio quienes han creado expresamente equivalentes
en espaol Pra usarlos en su propaganda. Y o he seguido la prctica de incluir
todo trmino de esta clase que he encontrado en buen uso tcnico. Debe notarse
que muchos trminos en-ingls de esta clase se han hecho tan conocidos que con
la sancin de Webster regularmente se escriben sin mayscula.' Para la mayora
de estos trminos hay equivalentes en espaol igualmente bien establecidos.
Muchos amigos que me proporcionaron consejos en la preparacin de la
obra original me han ayudado de nuevo. Estoy particularmente agradecido al
seor George C. Bunker con quien he pasado muchas horas en Caracas. Adems
de concederme amplio tiempo, me present a ingenieros venezolanos de quienes
obtuve material de gran valor. Para muchos trminos de ingeniera sanitaria.

 PREFACE

Under the war conditions of 1943, when the original Engineers Dictionary
was in preparation, publisher and author agreed that the book ought to be kept
down to about 450 pages. Some material had to be laid aside, and although the
resulting book dealt thoroughly with civil engineering, it could not go very far
with the terms of other fields.
Shortly after publication of the original book I retired from active work and
have since found ample time to devote to the compilation of a much more com
prehensive dictionary. The items formerly laid aside have been worked in and
a mass of new material has been studied. I have consulted many friends in
Latin America and from each trip have brought back technical publications of
many kinds to be worked over for my Spanish terms. I have constantly combed
the engineering periodicals and the newest books in both languages.
M y field is still engineering. Frequent references to chemistry, geology, or
metallurgy do not mean that these subjects are covered. Each of them would
need a volume of its own. Terms of these and other sciences here included are
those which are regularly npeded in connection with engineering work. The
same criterion has governed the selection of a very few of the terms of finance,
insurance, and transportation.
In enlarging the book my principal objectives have been three:

1. T o cover electrical and mechanical engineering much more thoroughly.

Radio, of which the first edition had nothing, has been given thorough study.
Important terms of television have been included.
2. T o bring all branches of civil engineering up to date. Special attention
has been given to photogrammetry, soil mechanics, and airport construction.
3. T o include the important terms peculiar to mining, shipbuilding, logging,
sugar milling, and oil-field operations.

A new feature is the notation of gender with all Spanish nouns.

The purpose of a technical dictionary is to furnish information not found
elsewhere. Websters is supposed to include every word in the English language
no matter how technical, but it does not cover the phrases that are listed in
official glossaries of the engineering societies. M any of the words in this book
will be found also in the best English-Spanish general dictionaries. Broad is
found anywhere and so is irrigation, but not broad irrigation. Buttress is found
and so is thread, but they cannot be combined into an equivalent for buttress
thread. M ost of my effort has gone into pinning down the phrases.
The listing of machine parts calls for the constant use of judgment. Every
manufacturer has his own list of parts for each machine, and some machines
have parts running into the thousands. The principal members of a machine
xi

xii PREFACE

must be listed, and 'tfith these, plus terms like bearing, cam, bolt, spring, roller,
and valve, equivalents of the vast riiajority of part names may be written easily.
In spite of some advice to the contrary I still believe that definitions are out
of place in a two-language technical dictionary. The user who turns to slip-
ring motor in a book such as this wants the accepted Spanish equivalents of that
term and is not looking for a description of a slip-ring motor. Definitions would
add greatly to the books bulk. M y practice has been to define a term only in
default of a satisfactory equivalent or occasionally to avoid ambiguity.
Obviously there are many words here, both Spanish and English, that have
meanings other than those given. Nontechnical meanings have usually been
ignored, as have those which belong to botany, zoology, or other sciences that,
do not concern the engineer.
Some of the terms in the original book have been criticized as bad Spanish.
One critic tells me that the listing of such terms in any dictionary tends to
perpetuate them and does an injury to the language. M y own view is that
the correctness of technical terms in any language is established by the technical
men who create them and use them, and the job of the dictionary maker is to
record this usage, This book aims to give the North American technical man
the accepted engineering terminology of Spanish America, and vice versa.
Terms taken from official publications, from engineers specifications, and from
textbooks are accepted terms. For many thousands of English technical
terms there are no good Spanish1 equivalents, if the Royal Academy is to be
the criterion. This is the principal reason for the difference between some
125,000 entries in the Academy dictionary and 500,000 in Websters.
Spanish equivalents of English trade names are a problem. The simple
statement that proprietary names cannot be translated does not cover the situa
tion because they are regularly being translated in Spanish-speaking countries.
M ny such terms have already appeared in other dictionaries, both straight
Spanish and English-Spanish. There are owners of English trade names who
have deliberately created Spanish equivalents for use in their advertising.
M y rule has been to include every term of this kind that I have found in good
technical use. It is to be noted also that there are a great many trade names in
English that have become so well known that, with Websters approval, they
are regularly written without the capital letter. For most of the terms in this
class there are Spanish equivalents equally well established.
M any friends who advised with me in the preparation of the original book
have again been helpful. I am particularly grateful to Mr. George C. Bunker
with whom I have spent many hours in Caracas. Besides giving freely of his
own time he introduced me to Venezuelan engineers from whom I obtained
material of great value. For terms of sanitary engineering, both in English and
in Spanish, I have to thank Mr. Edmund B. Besselievre of the Dorr Co. and
M r. Toms R . Yglesias of Mexico City. Seor Juan de Dios Tejada of Havana
gave me his expert advice on many questions. The vocabulary of geophysical
exploration, both English and Spanish, was furnished by engineers of the Socony
Vacuum Oil Co.
