The seventh edition of the Finnish Dictionary of Information Technology comprises
approximately twenty-five hundred commonly used Information Technology,
Processing and Communication related terms. Translations of most of the terms into
French, Swedish, German, Spanish, Estonian, and Russian are also provided.
The reviewer recognizes the pre-eminence of the hook in the Finnish data dictionary
world, although this last edition seems a bit out-of-date. He points out that the
book is particularly important in giving the Swedish vocabulary - Swedish being the
second official language in Finland. However, too often the book leaves out the
Swedish term or even gives an incorrect one. The reviewer considers the FinnishEnglish
vocabulary as the best part of the book.
