Dendrology (trees)

[kusurija]

Hi all!
Have good Advent!
I'm going to start new thread on dendrology (it's about trees). I didn't finish my .xls file yet, but as I thing no one wouldn't answer so fast, I'll present the very immature begining of it, so if someone would like to parcipitate, You can get acquainted with that "stub" and think out, how to help me far... I'm working with that file, so after some time it'll look better...

Hi,

I've added the Italian for Chestnut, Beech, Oak, Olive, Wallnut (sic, that is spelled 'Walnut' in British English), Apple, and Willow. I've added 'Cork Oak' to the English list. I'll upload it soon as I've worked out how to.

Indian Mast Tree is really bothering me, because I've seen them in Italy, and don't know what they're called in Italian.

I can provide a few more terms but unfortunately I have problems with my account and cannot upload the updated xls file to this thread.

I would be grateful if somebody could add them to the existing file for me:



ITALIAN
Betula → betulla
Corylus → nocciolo
Adansonia → baobab
Capparis → cappero
Carica → papaya
Cistus → cisto
Rhododendron → rododendro

Vaccinium (V. myrtillus) → mirtillo nero​

(V. vitis-idaea) → mirtillo rosso​

(V. oxycoccus) → mirtillo palustre​

Ricinus → ricino​

Lonicera → caprifoglio​

Sambucus → sambuco​

Viscum → vischio​

Ficus → fico​

Morus → gelso​

Eucalyptus → eucalipto ​

Myrtus → mirto​

Fraxinus → frassino
Ligustrum → ligustro
Crataegus → biancospino
Cydonia → cotogno

P.amygdalus → mandorlo​

ENGLISH​

Please note the English name for Rubus fruticosa is actually blackberry, not foxberry. According to my sources "foxberry" is another term for "lingonberry" and refers to Vaccinium vitis-idaea.
​

LATIN
I think it is Eucalyptus not Eucaluptus.


I hope this helps!

Thank you very much Laura!

(I'm managing another glossary at the moment, so my account run out of space. )

 

[Hermocrates]

I updated the xls file with more Italian terms. I also made a few corrections including fixing spelling mistakes (English, Latin)

Please note this file is zipped. Should you have any problems unzipping it, just let me know.

 

[Hermocrates]

On a side note, here is a tool that may come in quite handy when creating glossaries like this:

Wikispecies

Wikispecies is an open, free directory of species. It covers Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Bacteria, Archaea, Protista and all other forms of life.

If you enter a scientific name, you will be given the corresponding vernacular name in different languages.

I hope it helps!
