As part of an ongoing project on categorical translation, I'm organising an open-source multilingual dictionary of mathematical terminology. You can see the live website version at https://thosgood.com/maths-dictionary/ .
This dictionary is only as good as its entries, and for this there are many people to thank. Below is a list of people who have contributed towards this project.
TJF, Elena Badillo Goicoechea, Pedro Tamaroff, Enric Cosme Llópez, Dilan Demirtaş, Thibaut Benjamin, Fatimah Ahmadi, Övge, Samuel Lelièvre, Besnik Nuro, Natasha Crepeau, Caio Oliveira, Nowras Ali, Maciek Ogrodnik, Matteo Capucci, Jone Uria Albizuri, Ralph Sarkis, Clément Spaier, Jordan Emme, Phil Pützstück.
- add an initial column with

data (automatically href'd etc) - script to fill in all the missing languages with empty strings
- for both nouns and adjectives
- this should read from
languages.json
so that we can run it whenever a new language is added
- support for multiple atoms
- e.g. regional variations, or just synonyms
- a way to inherit adjectives from another entry!
- e.g. give a list of hashes of adjectives that "group" should inherit from "ring"
- LTR/RTL information should be used when displaying adjectives!
- should also be reflected in

in the css
- should also be reflected in
- add plurals of nouns (and thus adjectives)
- will also need cases (for e.g.
DE
)
- will also need cases (for e.g.
- think about verbs...
- link each entry (incl. adjectives) to a wikidata tag
- any other useful sources?
- MathWorld and Encyclopedia of Mathematics
- any other useful sources?
- get language selectors in
index.html
from the language.json
files- should also get endonyms from there too
