"It is my aim to provide a reliable source for ALL Brothers that make that ONE Lodge. Let us fill the gaps and add many more languages together as you can contribute to this ever growing list (and correct mistakes too)."

Christopher Sicurella, Association of Masonic Arts Grand Ambassador to Europe

How to do

• How to fill the gaps: Please substitute ITALIANO by the correct Italian word.
• How to add a language: Please add a new language following Portugese.
• How to add a term: Please insert a new line featuring the term you wish to add.

Arcanum

We of course avoid what has to be avoided.
