Do you need to know how to say “plaid” in Latin? “Taxi?” “Mountain bike?”
If so, look no farther than the Lexicon Recentis Latinitatis. It has an interesting mix of words translated into Latin. The non-Latin column is a mix of English and Italian, so you may have to use another dictionary to find your target words.
