Glossary

In this glossary you will find about 150 words we often use and cannot find easily in dictionaries. It contains description in English as well as the same word in ten other languages. Anybody interested in helping EXARC expanding this or helping translate is welcome to contact us. This glossary is a result of the Grundtvig Learning Partnerships (Didarchtik and Zeitgeist) we had over the years 2010-2012.
