Medical -- engineering dictionaries?

Could someone point me toward extension dictionaries related to medical or
engineering terminology? I seem to remember there being several on the
extensions page but can't find much now.

Thanks, Tom

Seems like that might do it for medical dictionary - engineering I wasn't able to find quickly.

Best,

This is the most "generic" dictionary in LO's extension site that I
know. IT contains medical, chemical, and other scientific words in its
797,865 word list.

This is a very large list of dictionaries. You might want to look at
this list sometime,

OR look at the LO Extension page for their dictionaries [link here] or
any of the other extensions it lists.

Thank all of you for the replies. Think I'll find what I want among those
responses.

If you do find a dictionary for LO that is for Engineering Terminology,
please let us know.

The more specific dictionaries for these type of course of study or
field of work, the better it will be for LO to get into those college
students hands and have all of the spelling words they need to keep
corrected for work or college documentation.

We have Medical and Chemistry, we need Mathematics, Engineering, the
different sciences of life, environment, and all of those sciences that
have "ology" at the end of their names.

If I had a place where there was a glossary of terms that was spelled
correctly, I could turn them into a dictionary to be used, but I need to
know that the words come from a source that has spelled the words/terms
correctly.
