:So I feel like asking you again: how does one get "leader circuit" out of LEO (or any German-English dictionary)? | :So I feel like asking you again: how does one get "leader circuit" out of LEO (or any German-English dictionary)? | ||

Leader is just the result of a series of overlookings and mistakes in order: two different hits on LEO | |||
(leiter and leiterbahn), than as I re-read I mistook the word "leader" as "leaded". | |||
circuit(al) paths is the most convenient translation in the first sentence (Carmen's texture = Cortana's, as you said) | |||
(and according to my brother, who is electronic engineer as well as researcher) | |||

:If your idea of translating compound words is translating word parts separately and put the English words together... I'm afraid that won't yield good results for "technical terms". | :If your idea of translating compound words is translating word parts separately and put the English words together...

Actually it is not possible to get composite words with LEO. And if you know me, you know I would not dare to translate composite words by simply mixing the results of separate hits (well... only when I cannot resist my curiosity^^). I am not sure whether or not Babylon accepts composed queries, but sometimes the automatic translator at freetranslation.com deserves nice surprises. | |||
By the way, LEO often links to another grammar dictionary, the CANOO, where composite words are illustrated through useful diagrams. | |||

For the staircases in chapter 3 I am considering "stationnary guns" or "stationnary defenses", | |||
