The "Dictionary of Engineering and Technology" – the "ERNST" for short – has been regarded as one of the standard reference works of its kind for 75 years. Its first editions appeared in 1948 (German-English) and 1951 (English-German). The volume French-English was first published in 1982, the volume English-French in 1984.

The "Ernst" provides a well-founded selection of terms from the basic sciences such as mathematics, physics, chemistry and from all important branches of industry, their raw materials, developments and products (mining, metallurgy, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, electronics, computing, telecommunications, civil and traffic engineering, textile, glass, plastics, wood, paper, printing industries, automotive and environmental engineering and many others).

English-French 213,648 entries, edition 2023

This revision has followed the well-proven principles of Dr Ernst to present the most important terms from the pertinent fields in a clear and concise manner. Again, the dictionary has been revised and adjusted to include recent linguistic and technical developments. Thousands of new entries from all areas of engineering and technology have increased the total number of entries of the Ernst French-English / English-French to 396,392. The emphasis of this revision was electrical engineering and its fundamental principles as well as energy technology.

With its 396,392 entries the Ernst French-English / English-French continues to be the comprehensive reference for technical translators.
