FOREWORD
purpose of this dictionary is to provide Russian equivalents for Ameri-
can military terms and the American equivalents of Russian terms. As far
as true equivalents based on currcnt pi:actice and usage have been
given, rather than literal translations.
scope of the dictionary has been quite closely limited to military subject
and terminology from directly related fields. Terms have been se-
lected for inclusion mainly according to their relative importance for military
purposes and the availability of authentic Russian sources of information.
ln the arrangement of terms the single-entry method has been used. term
like advance guard will found only under advance and not under guard.
straight alphabetical sequence is followed, regardless of whether any
given entry consists of one word or more, thus: '
direct current
direction
directional
direction
direct observation
Among various equivalents for given term, synonyms are separated
commas, different meanings semicolons.
Explanatory glosses in parentheses have frequently been given in abbre-
viated form. For the most part, the abbreviations have been taken from the
authorized lists in AR 850-150 and FM 21-30. abbreviations that are not
from these lists are listed on page vi.
ln the Russian-English part the genders of Russian nouns that do not follow
the most usual rules for gender ar,e marked f, and n, respectively. Not
marked are: masculines ending in consonant or feminines in or
and neuters in and
Where Russian plural form is given as the equivalent of an English singu-
l'lr, the Russian word is marked mpl, fpl, or npl, as the case may

where the punctual aspect is so different as to make the correlation not easily

punctual aspect is omitted where both forms would follow
each other.
ln both parts of the dictionary the stress accent is shown on Russian words
of more than one
English nouns are not marked as such. Other parts of speech are indicated '
when the same term appears as two or more separate entries, and otherwise
only where necessary to avoid
