One more thing that can help you to translate is Multitran. It is an Internet-based dictionary system.

The developer of the Multitran software is Andrey Pominov, Moscow.

Currently, Multitran is one of the largest and most popular web dictionaries in Runet. Every day, over 90 thousand people visit Multitran.ru, and over 1.5 million search requests are processed.

Every user of Multitran can ask a question concerning translation on the Multitran forums. Multitran users also arrange offline meetings from time to time, so called 'pow-wows'. Such pow-wows were held in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Kiev.

Multitran's database contains over 10 million terms. Every registered user can expand the dictionaries online (over 1000 translators are active contributors). Alphabetical, morphological, word-combination search is possible. Besides there's a possibility for simultaneous search in the dictionaries, forums, and in the database of English and Russian parallel sentences.
