I've been cataloging too much lately. Especially translations. I can now spell things like Energomashinostroyeniye without looking, even though I know no Russian.

not making. building. has the same root as formation (as in solders, or birds flying). has the implication of logically placed things one after another. mashinostroyenie is mechanical engineering, as far as i know, Energomashinostroyenie is the name of the office my grandma worked at.
