Abstract: This document is a supplementary volume to the Trukese-English Dictionary, focusing on English-Trukese translations and an index of Trukese word roots. The geographic focus is on Truk (also known as Chuuk), part of the Federated States of Micronesia, covering the contemporary linguistic landscape. The time period addressed is not explicitly stated but is inferred to be relevant to current usage and understanding of the Trukese language.

The work includes a comprehensive list of English words translated into Trukese, alongside an index that categorizes Trukese word roots, facilitating linguistic research and language learning. Specific taxa or ecological systems are not discussed, nor are legal frameworks or subject domains beyond linguistic translation. The document serves as a resource for linguists, educators, and learners interested in the Trukese language, providing essential tools for understanding and utilizing the language in various contexts.

The structure of the work is organized to enhance accessibility, with clear delineation between English entries and their Trukese counterparts, as well as an index for quick reference. This supplementary volume is intended to complement the primary Trukese-English Dictionary, enriching the study of the language.
