Sorry, I forgot to mention, that "medio" (as in plurmedio) is a false
friend in Esperanto for speakers of English. "Medio" in Esperanto means
"environment", while the English "media" is translated by "komunikilo"
(= means-of-communication). That's why "plurmedio" or "plurmedia" is
not found in any dictionary (I hope). A better translation of
"multimedia" is "plurperila" (= multi-way-of-transmitting),
"plur-komunikila" (somewhat long) or, as I said, "plurkanala", which
was proposed by prof. Helmar Frank. But in my opinion "multimedia" is
largely used as a fancy synonym of "graphical" or "non-textual". :-\
All the best for your career in Esperanto.

Hello,
for many terms I rely on Sergej Pokrovskij's "Komputada Leksikono". In
my opinion he did good work. You can find it here:

"Plurmedio" is a translation of "multimedia", maybe not an excellent
one, due to the notion's fuzzy meaning. Some call it "plurkanala" (=
multi-channel). "ludlisto" literally means "game list". I am not
familiar with computer games, so I cannot tell you what it means.
Best regards,

Hi,
I am a Kubuntu user and I have been using the esperanto langugage pack for
the past few weeks. Great work! I am still a beginner in esperanto and am
hoping to contribute to the language team some day. However, I was wondering
what dictionary you were using for translation of terms, as a lot of them
(eg. plurmedio, ludlistoj etc.) do not seem to be defined in the common
english-esperanto dictionaries that I can find. Any help towards this would
be greatly appreciated. Thanks and keep up the great work! Hope to join you
guys some day.
Regards,
Prashanth
