Polish/Swedish or Polish/English technical dictionary
I was planning to send out quotes for building materials for the next house to Poland, but I'm having trouble translating construction-specific terms into Polish. Does anyone have a tip on a more advanced dictionary for this purpose? We will probably ask a translation firm to translate for us, but it might be a good idea to understand the basics.
Best regards,

Six months ago, there was only one, or rather two, books (red) at Akademibokhandeln. Book 1: Swedish/Polish, Book 2: Polish/Swedish.
They cost just over 500 SEK each and are really good. I have one of the books, but in daily conversation, you need both...
Quickly checked again at akademibokhandeln.se and found that they now have a number of books. Thus, the development is moving forward.
Generally speaking, there are very few construction terms/technical terms, unfortunately.

It's more like you're thinking of requesting quotes (as opposed to sending out) from Polish construction companies.... ;D.
I worked in Finland for a few months, including conducting an internal audit. I can't speak any Finnish, and the staff was mostly Finnish-speaking. Even though the company was international with English as the corporate language, all materials and documentation were in Finnish.
Couldn't find any dictionary in Sweden, needed both a regular one and a specialized economic-legal dictionary. I contacted a large bookstore in Helsinki - and sure, they had lots of Finnish-English dictionaries!!
So my advice is to contact a large bookstore, must be possible to find via the internet, and buy the books directly from Poland.
Once you have the books, you could rent them out, there are surely more of us who have considered buying from Poland.
