For those who love hand made lace.
Multilingual-Lace-Terms
We need a multilingual dictionary of lace terms. Here are some links. If you ever make such a dictionary for yourself, or find one online, or know of a good one in a book, please post it in a comment below, and I will add it to this list. OIDFA TRANSLATOR. https://www.oidfa.com/translate.html.en# ;

German lace terminology with pictures:

International Lace Dictionary by Edith Spee- Ineke van den Kieboom - Johan Coene. there are two editions. the first, published in Gent in 1994, giving translations into English, French, Spanish, German, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese and Danish. I'm fairly certain the second edition was published between two and five years later, giving translations into several more languages - but I can't remember which. Johan Coene is the publisher, there is an address and phone number given for orders but after 20 years this may no longer be correct. (facebook, Jane Partridge)
Alexandra Stillwell's Illustrated Dictionary of Lacemaking Cassell Alex's dictionary, which as the Cassell edition is out of print she has revised and republished herself (Google 'Salex Publishing'), might be worth looking at. However, I don't think it is published in other languages.
There is also The Illustrated Dictionary of Lace by Judyth Gwynne, Batsford, 1997, which is more photograph based (possibly aimed more at identification than description) - again, I don't know if this has been translated into other languages and is likely to be out of print. If you are looking for word for word translations, then there are the two editions of International Lace Dictionary by Edith Spee, and I think I've heard something about an app that translates the terms, but that is in electronic, not written, format.

Did you look at the OIDFA link above? It does have some terms, but probably not all.

edThe lace dictionary of Johan Coene is still available as the author sells it himself. The1998 edition does have other languages: Japanese,, Russian,Czech, Hungarian, Finnish, Swedish,Danish
The dictionary is made with the help of lacemakers for lacemakers (names of lacemakers who helped with the translations are mentioned.
contact coene.johan@belgacom.net
The Chech words were prepared and compiled by Jitka Egermayer Belgium and Anna Halikova Praha Czech Republic
it is the best real dictionary of lace terms that is available.

This message was posted on arachne today, and I think it intelligently highlights the problems of translating lace terms from one language to another.

If you can give better translations, please do. I had google translate do the whole page. Their skill at lace technical words is notoriously peculiar.

I had a look at the Polish names. Thanks but after studying the images closer, I find that the meaning is rather dubious if the arrow is at the right place.
Plocienko meaning cloth stitch
tasiemko also seems to mean cloth stitcj however the trans lation of this word means narrow tape.
mereska is translated as 'hemstitch' does the arrow show the weaver? or? the cloth stitch or the ribbon?
In order to make a Polish list I think that one must have other pictures to know what is EXACTLY the right translation. Can anyone explain if I am wrong in thinking this way? Are you also seeing it the way I translate the images. Thanks and have a nice day

Always glad to help.
The 8 languages in the first part of the book are English, French, German, Dutch, Spanish, Catalunia, Italian and Portugees.
These are the ones I use mostly. the second part of the book are languages not very common here.

Thank you for the info about that book. This is the first time I have heard about it. Now we know who to ask when we are trying to decipher something! I suppose the other languages are Danish, Swedish, Finnish, Hungarian, Czech, Russian, Japanese. Perhaps it omits French, German, Italian & Spanish because they thought everybody already knew those.

I have an international lace Dictionary 1998 ISBN X-01874
It has two parts while the first part has 8 western languages part II has English , Dansk, Svenska ,SUomi, Magyarul, Cesky, Pyccknn and Japanese. It is very good. I do not know if it is out of print or has been republished, but I know it is difficult to find.
Was orignially self- published by Johan Coene in Gent- Belgium with a copyright.
