Glass making terms in Spanish
« on: March 05, 2012, 10:32:31 AM »
 Does anyone know of an online English /Spanish dictionary of glass terms?  As most glass terms aren't even in an English dictionary they never get translated into Spanish.  I have found a book but it appears out of print (except one copy in the States which was too expensive for me to buy).

I am learning Spanish and reasonably advanced in the language.  I have had a Google on your behalf but like you have not found anything specific.  However I do have access to some clever translation sites.  Is there anything in particular I can help you with I will have a go!  Perhaps you could send me a PM/email with some idea of what you are seeking.

Thank you both.  I too am learning Spanish (I'm hopeless by the way!) and am getting very frustrated when trying to talk about my passion for glass.  I've spent so long trying to find the translations that I haven't had time to actually do my homework!  :spls:
Vidrioguapo I will contact you later thanks.
