A South Korean Navy officer has published a glossary of Russian military jargon, which is expected to help promote defense cooperation between the two nations, the Defense Ministry said Tuesday.
Cdr. Chung Jae-ho with the ministry's intelligence unit published the unprecedented dictionary in South Korea, which contains the Korean-language definitions of around 3,500 Russian words related to the military.
It was published in a joint effort with experts on Russian including translation specialist Kim Kwang-hwan and professors Bang Kyo-young and Kaplan Tamara at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies in Seoul.
It took more than 10 years for Chung to complete the book.
He felt the need for such a dictionary in the early 2000s when he was studying at a Moscow university for a doctorate.
"I hope this dictionary will be helpful to those who study Russian as well as officials and experts involved in military-related work," Chung said.
He plans to donate all profits to organizations for cultural exchanges between South Korea and Russia. (Yonhap)
