That way, even if you type a word in, say, Spanish, but you chose English as the language you want your Google hits to be in, you'll get pages in English which contain the Spanish term. If this sounds confusing, please ask me more! :P

In Google, just click on "Advanced Search" (is that tiny text right next to the Google logo), and you'll find something that says "Language --> Return pages written in..." and then you pick a language of the list.

Marine Environmental Education Specialist for MEES (now it is becoming confusing). You need to check against your context.

Maintenace of Dynamic Equipment Information (office), and Maintenance of Static Equipment Services (office) as far as i can see they got their abreviations mixed up language wise, or at least they are in the wrong order...you just never know eh? :- ))"

Just type for example MEDI and marine and then scan the list of subjects and then use the terminology in the text you have chosen and go on like that.

See if it works and I can help you more if you need.
