Greetings / tahaiya tayyiba wa b3ad..

Re your query about wordlists

Kindly clarify re

       English-only or English <-> Arabic

in those subjects?

Microsoft has an English <-> Arabic glossary (limted and very basic, IMHO)
of PC terms somewhere in its web site. You probably will need an
Arabic-supported MS Windows 9X/2000 platform to read the Arabic entries.

For the others, there are a few (very) English <-> Arabic dictionaries or
glossaries on those fields. While those vocabularies are expanding very
rapidly, there are some Arabic websites that are focussed on those
industries and technologies, one of which is < www.itparabia.com > for
IT-related subjects.

Any particular terms (esp re mobile telephony/GSM or transportation),
ahalan wa sahalan...

HTH.

Khair, in sha' Allah.
