CONCLUSIÓN

It’s very important for every professional to have
a rich vocabulary in general, but also in his or her specific
field of work. It’s impossible to learn all the technical
terminology that exists, because constantly new words appear
according to the necessities of all the professional fields. But
it’s important that professionals are familiarized with the
definitions and words related to their own field of study or
field of work.

This paper has presented 100 technical terms and instead
of giving written definitions, full color pictures
are shown so that it can be easy to identify and remember the
words and terms presented.

This investigation is very helpful because when
searching technical terms, it’s possible to memorize them
and then to be ready for using them in the future.
