This dictionary was drawn up after being guided by what was approved by the Council of the Academy and its conference regarding new cultural terms, or new terms introduced or transferred, in various sciences and arts, or precise and clear scientific definitions of things.ContentThe dictionary materials were arranged, as is customary, according to alphabetical order.
