Sailing Dictionary's mission is to compile nautical terminology for practical use at sea. The ambition is not to create a linguistically correct dictionary but to help sailors communicate about their passion in different languages.
This project is a living effort (see the stats on this page). Help it grow in whatever way you can. Spread the word, suggest words to be added that are currently missing or point out mistakes.

198 Translations
A translation is a word, used in a certain language, that describes a concept. In English, it is called “boat“, in Swedish, it is called “båt" and in German it is called “Boot“.
All three translations describe the same concept but with different words.
