INTRODU

1. urpose. his manual is published to aid the English

speaking researcher, translator, writer, editor, or engineer who has
occasion to use Russian language publications on Electronics and
elecommunication. hough a pioneer work in its field the dictionary
is believed to be reasonably comprehensive as all modern sources
available have been used in the compilation. In addition to the
sources published in the U.S.., the U.S.S.R. and the U.., many
Russian terms have been obtained from Soviet factories, research
institutions, and individual scientists.
2. ntents. The dictionary is an overall collection of about
22,000 Russian terms and abbreviations covering the following fields:
ntennas and Waveguides, tomics (principal terms), ero
nautical applications, atteries, acons, Cable, ommunica
tions, omputers, Dial telephone systems, Direction finding,
lectroacoustics, Electromedical applications, Electron devices,
lectronics, Facsimile, igh-frequency techniques, Industrial
electronics, arine applications, surements and measuring
instruments, odulation systems, Navigation (radio aids to),
ptics, scillographs, Photo applications, Physics (fringe
terms), Pulse work, Radar, Radio, Radiolocation, Radiology,
RR signals, Interlocking and automatic control, Semiconduc
tors (including transistors), Signaling (including alarm sys
 tems), Sound recording, elegraphy, elemechanics (includ
ing telemetering), elephony, elevision, ubes and their
manufacture, and X-rays.
he dictionary also gives explanations to such peculiar Soviet terms
and concepts as , -, , etc.,
which strictly speaking have no eduivalent in Western terminology.
3. xplanatory Notes. a. General. For the sake of consist
ency certain specific procedures were used in the compilation of the
dictionary. Users of the dictionary will find it useful to familiarize
themselves with these procedures which are given below.
b. Sequence of terms. strictly alphabetic sequence has been fol
lowed regardless of whether an entry consists of one word or more;
every abbreviation is treated as one word. ll hyphens, apostrophes,
etc. are ignored as far as the alphabetical sequence is concerned. In
using the Russian-English section of the dictionary, the user needs
to know only the Russian spelling to find quickly the equivalent
nglish term. Whenever a Russian term has several different mean
ings, each meaning is numbered and presented in the order of fre
uency of usage.
. Spelling. Russian terms having two spellings are given in both
forms; for example, , .
d. ross-reference. facilitate translation, an extensive cross
reference system is provided. The eferences used are
"see" referring to a synonym or a closely related term;
"see also" referring to a loosely connected term;
"for "f" referring to a remotely connected or opposite term;
also when reference is made to a different part of speech, as
from noun to a verb and vice versa.
. bbreviations. indicate the branch of science or engineer
ing to which they refer, explanatory glosses are given in parenthesis
beside the definition. he abbreviations used are
ac8t acoustics rad radio
adj adjective . rdr radar **

t antenna rr appl railroad applications:

t automatic systems and signals, interlocking,
equipment . automatic controls
aviation , , . sig! signaling systems
batt batteries . tbs electron tubes and
rit ritish - - their manufacture
collq colloquialism ** tgphy telegraphy
dts dial telephone system tch telemechanics including
ch machinery, electric telemetering
8 measurements and tph telephony
,, instruments -- trde trade name
electromedical applications ty television -

navigation x-ray x-ray techniques

oscillography
 f. Reference Clusters. ny basic terms, having derived terms
elsewhere in the dictionary, are followed by reference clusters. For
example:
deviation, deflection, declination. See also
, ., ,
, , , ,
, , .
he clusters will help the user to translate by analogy those derived
terms which are not available in the dictionary. The clusters will
help also in those cases where the compound term sought differs
slightly from the form given in the dictionary.
. Russian Verbs. Russian verbs are given in both aspects, im
perfective and perfective. s is customary in Russian-foreign dic
tionaries the translation is given only once, under the imperfective
aspect. he other form is provided with the reference "p.a. of"
which means "perfective aspect of". For example:
p.a. of .

4. ranslitration able. The Russian alphabet has 33 letters,

which are listed on page 6 with their translitration as adopted by
the rd on Geographic Names for the convenience of the user.
