This book has been reviewed on the lace gumnuts website
A cross reference of some 630 English words used in lacemaking, with equivalents in French, German, Dutch, Spanish, Catalan, Italian and Portugeuse in the first half, and equivalents in Danish, Swedish, Finnish, Hungarian, Czech, Russian and Japanese in the second half. Total of 178 pages, soft cover, hard wire spiral bound, measuring 210mm x 150mm. A most useful addition to the library of anyone who has acquired lace books in another language! So, you've bought a book that is not in a language that you read.
No problem. I would strongly recommend downloading the Google Translate app on your phone. This allows you to hold your phone over the text and it shows the translated text on your phone screen. I've used this successfully to read Russian lacebooks.
