Translated & Explained
Tech, cybersecurity, and business and marketing are full of terms that everyone seems to know — except you. The Translated & Explained series cuts through the confusion with plain English definitions written for small business owners who just want to understand what they’re dealing with.
I’ve spent nearly 30 years translating tech into English — first for employees in the corporate world, and more recently for the small business owners who used to be those employees. This series came out of one simple observation: the jargon doesn’t stop just because you’ve started your own business. If anything, it gets worse.
Each guide covers a specific area — cybersecurity, business and marketing, or technology — with every term explained the way I explain it to clients. No assumptions, no waffle, and no IT degree required. Whether you’re looking up a term you’ve just come across, or building your confidence across a whole subject area, there’s a guide for you.
Can’t decide which one you need? The Complete Tech Dictionary brings all three subjects together in one volume — great value if you want the full picture in one place.
All four guides are available as PDF downloads from this shop, and as paperback and Kindle editions on Amazon.

Frequently Asked Questions
The three individual guides — Cybersecurity, Business & Marketing, and Technology — each focus on one specific subject area. The Complete Tech Dictionary brings all three together in one volume. If you know which area you want to focus on, an individual guide is a great starting point. If you want everything in one place, the Complete Tech Dictionary is the better choice.
If cybersecurity and staying safe online is your priority, start with Cybersecurity. If you’re getting to grips with the language of running and marketing a business, Business & Marketing is the one for you. If it’s general tech and AI terms you want to understand, go for Technology. Or skip the decision entirely and get the Complete Tech Dictionary.
