Medizin. The great German-Spanish medical dictionary

Even without considering the Dictionary of doubts and difficulties in English medical translation (referred to hereafter as Libro rojo) on Cosnautas, medical translators who work out of English have always had excellent English monolingual medical dictionaries (Dorland, Stedman, Churchill), a good selection of bilingual medical dictionaries (almost all of which are hefty volumes and some of a very decent quality), endless online monolingual and bilingual glossaries, mountains of medical journals in every specialty, the very best—and the most up to date—reference manuals and texts books, the most exhaustive and numerous Wikipedia articles (over five million of them!), the option to readily compile parallel texts and huge corpora, and a long etcetera. Without a doubt, medical translators can deal confidently with terminology doubts in English, without even opening the Libro rojo once.

It is quite a different situation, however, for those who have to translate French or German into Spanish (not to mention other less common international source languages, such as Russian, Japanese, Arabic, Portuguese, Chinese or Dutch). Since the Second World War, the panorama of publications in Spanish-speaking countries in all language pairs except English-Spanish has been bleak to the point of becoming lexicographically barren, a classification that I dare to use without even exaggerating. This depressing scenario is particularly notorious in the German-Spanish language pair, despite the fundamental role that German-speaking countries played in medicine and other biosciences in the 20th century.

German-Spanish medical dictionaries have indeed been published over these years, but they leave much to be desired and are unable to solve most of the terminological doubts that crop up in a specialist translator’s work.¹ When I started ruminating on the idea of compiling a German-Spanish medical dictionary, it immediately became clear that the German-Spanish language pair (like the French-Spanish pair) was not mature enough from a terminological perspective to consider writing another Libro rojo with a broad critical approach to tackle specific doubts and difficulties. What was needed, first and foremost, was to compile a big, traditional-style German-Spanish medical dictionary with simple equivalents and with a bare minimum of encyclopaedic and explanatory comments.

1 Fernando A. Navarro: «Diccionarios médicos alemán-español: ¿cuál me compro?» In: Elena Sánchez Trigo and Oscar Diaz Fouces (editors): Traducción & Comunicación, vol. 4. Vigo: Universidade de Vigo, 2003; pp. 85‑120.

What should this sort of dictionary contain? Everything; absolutely everything. Not only medical technical terms commonly found in specialised dictionaries, but also medical colloquial expressions and slang (which is so prominent in German), scientific terms in English and Latin, standardised nomenclatures, multi-word units and collocations, technical acronyms, contractions and abbreviations, relevant jobs and positions, anthroponyms, toponyms, and proper names of scientific journals, hospitals, universities, associations and institutions of all kinds; not forgetting archaisms (such as Ophthalmiater for ophthalmologist or optician), since a large part of current German to Spanish medical translation is related to articles and books published in the heroic age of Germanic medicine (broadly between 1850 and the beginning of the Second World War), when more discoveries and breakthroughs were reported in German than in all other languages put together. In short, such a dictionary should contain any term that a medical translator might encounter in a German source text.

With the Big German-Spanish medical dictionary, my aim is to make it the biggest bilingual medical dictionary ever published in our setting. However, it is not a dictionary with critical analyses and comments like the Libro rojo; it is a simple bilingual dictionary of German-Spanish equivalents. That means that users (professional medical translators) must have a reasonable knowledge of medical language in Spanish. When, for example, a translator searches for a term such as Loslassschmerz and finds the Spanish equivalent “signo de Blumberg”, he or she needs to be familiar with this sign already, or at least know where to find it in a text book or good monolingual Spanish medical dictionary. Similarly, in the case of polysemic entries, users will frequently have to rely on their background knowledge to select the most suitable equivalent, depending on the context. When, for example, the dictionary states that the German particle Röntgen– is related to radiology, radiographs and radioscopy, it is presumed that users will be able to distinguish between these three concepts in Spanish, or as in the previous example, at least know where to look them up.

Almost all the entries in this dictionary follow one of the five structures below:

1) Monosemic entry with a single equivalent (with or without comments)

2) Polysemic entry with several meanings (with or without comments)

3) Entry with one or more cross references to another entry that supplies a translation equivalent

4) Mixed polysemic entry, with some meanings that provide equivalents and others that refer to another entry

5) Monosemic or polysemic entry that also includes multi-word units

Version 1.12 of the Big German-Spanish medical dictionary contains some 236,000 entries with more than 338,700 equivalents (as meanings and multi-word units that are listed in a single entry) and about 72,800 clickable cross references.

To get a rough idea of the magnitude of these numbers, let me share a brief comparison of three of the leading monolingual German medical dictionaries (Pschyrembel Klinisches Wörterbuch,¹ Springer Wörterbuch Medizin² and Roche Lexikon Medizin,³with about 50,000 to 60,000 entries each), two small, current, bilingual dictionaries (by Nolte-Schlegel⁴ and Tamayo Delgado,⁵ withabout 4,000 and 25,000 entries, respectively) and the dictionary (by Ruiz Snr. and Jnr.,¹ with about 130,000 entries) that has generally been held as the biggest German-Spanish medical dictionary to date, until, that is, the launch of the Big German-Spanish medical dictionary.

Another simple way to compare sizes is to count the number of entries that start with Arznei- in each of the aforementioned dictionaries (figures in square brackets): Pschyrembel [15], Springer [19], Roche [14], Nolte [0], Tamayo [9] and Ruiz [65]. The Big German-Spanish medical dictionary on Cosnautas currently has more than two hundred entries starting with Arznei–.

It should be noted that the dictionary is incomplete at present. It is still being compiled, still growing, and still being perfected. For example, I am currently working on about 10,000 entries that appear online with only the headword and cross references, and without the Spanish equivalents, meanings or multi-word units. They are marked as «entrada en elaboración» (“entry under development”). I plan to progressively add new headwords and meanings to the dictionary, and these additions will become available when updated versions are released on Cosnautas. I would be grateful for all the help that users can provide through the online “Help us improve" forms, by suggesting new entries or meanings and, above all, correcting the many typos and errors present in this first edition of the Big German-Spanish medical dictionary, because in its current state it is little more than a working draft.

Multi-word units do not have their own entries in this dictionary; they are listed below the first noun or main element that they contain. For example, the multi-word unit hintere Wurzel der Ansa cervicalis is listed in the entry for Wurzel, and frei erhältlich comes under the entry for erhältlich.

At present, the dictionary has about 13,600 entries containing more than 54,200 multi-word units. In most cases, entries have fewer than a dozen multi-word units, as can be seen, for example, in the entries for Kreislauf and Ruhr. However, there are about a thousand entries with more than twelve multi-word units each, and a hundred or so extreme cases with more than fifty multi-word units (and in fact more than three hundred on some occasions). See, for example, the entries for Glandula and Mittel.

The dictionary currently has over 21,200 abbreviations, most of which are German, but it also includes some 6,600 English and 2,300 Latin abbreviations that are commonly used in German medical texts.

I certainly have no intention of making the Big German-Spanish medical dictionary an English medical abbreviation resource. To start with, it would be a Herculean task: an abbreviation such as ACP would have to cover the full range of national institutions in English-speaking countries, including the American College of Pathologists, American College of Pharmacists, American College of Physicians, American College of Prosthodontists, and American College of Psychiatrists. I have, however, tried to include English abbreviations that are frequently found as such in German medical texts. Some abbreviations, of course, are easily confused: FP may mean Frischplasma in German, but also frozen plasma in English; URQ may mean unterer rechter Quadrant in German, but also upper right quadrant in English.

If the expansion of an abbreviation or acronym has its own entry in the dictionary, it has a clickable cross reference; otherwise the expansion is provided in German [de] (or English [en], Latin [la] or French [fr]), along with its Spanish equivalent. Below are some examples of a range of cases:

Many of these acronyms may of course have multiple meanings in German texts (and may even be a source of confusion in a single specialty: SGTT may mean Standardglukosetoleranztest or Steroidglukosetoleranztest), which is why these entries sometimes contain a long list of meanings. Examples of this type of entry are AP (with 60 meanings) and E (with 75 meanings), to name but two.

Browse the Big German-Spanish medical dictionary online with a search engine that offers six search modes:

1. Simple search

This is the default option to search for a dictionary entry. After typing two or more letters, a drop-down menu appears with the first ten entries in the dictionary that start with the given letter combination. Autocomplete the entry by clicking the corresponding word when it appears in the drop-down list.

Note: all dictionary entries use the Swiss alphabet, which lacks the letter ß (Eszett). To search for an entry that contains ß, insert a double ‘s’: ss. For example, the terms beißen, Fuß and Gesäß, appear in the dictionary as beissen, Fuss and Gesäss, respectively.

2. Headword starts with...

This mode performs a search for a combination of at least four characters at the beginning of a word. For example, typing “haut” in this search mode returns a list of words such as Hautabdeckung, Hautabdruck, Hautabhebung, Hautablederung, Hautablegergeschwulst, Hautablösung, Hautablösungsinstrument…

3. Headword ends with…

This mode performs a search for a combination of at least four characters at the end of a word. For example, typing “haut” in this search mode returns a list of words such as Abszesshaut, Aderhaut, Afterhaut, Aknehaut, Alligatorhaut, Altershaut, Alveolarschleimhaut…

4. Headword contains…

This mode performs a search for a combination of at least four characters in any part of a word. For example, typing “haut” in this search mode returns a list of all words that start with Haut– (see search mode 2 above), end with –haut (see search mode 3 above) and those that contain the combination –haut– inside the word (Abbe-Hautlappen, Aderhautablösung, Afterschleimhauteinriss, Aorteninnenhautentzündung, Augenbindehautsack, Bachmann-Hauttest, Backenschleimhautverwachsung…).

5. German term

This search mode returns results not only from the main body of the dictionary but also from expanded abbreviations and multi-word units. Thus, entering “haut” in this search mode returns not only the dictionary entry Haut, but also the abbreviation PTH (prozentuale Tiefendosis in der Haut) and the dictionary entry Angionekrose (containing the multi-word unit allergische Angionekrose der Haut), as well as other results.

6. Spanish term

The Big German-Spanish medical dictionary is not designed to be used as a reverse Spanish-German medical dictionary, nor do I recommend its use for Spanish to German translations. However, this search mode allows results to be found for Spanish equivalents anywhere in the dictionary. For example, a search for “pancreatitis” in Spanish not only returns entries such as Pankreatitis (= pancreatitis), Bauchspeicheldrüsenentzündung (= pancreatitis), Autoimmunpankreatitis (= pancreatitis autoinmunitaria) and Viruspankreatitis (= pancreatitis vírica), but also entries such as Apoplexia (containing the multi-word unit Apoplexia pancreatis = pancreatitis hemorrágica aguda) and abbreviations such as CBP (chronische bakterielle Pankreatitis = pancreatitis bacteriana crónica) and NP (nekrotisierendes Pankreatitis = pancreatitis necrosante).

Scientific Advisory Board (2017-2021)

The Big German-Spanish Medical Dictionary has a single author, but the sheer scope of the project led me to count initially on the support of a Scientific Advisory Board. This consultancy group was made up of colleagues who have sound German-Spanish knowledge and broad experience in translating texts in medical and related scientific fields. Their mission was to help me correct errors, corroborate complex or dubious equivalents and suggest new terms and meanings to add to the dictionary.
