20 Electrical Engineering : Automation and control. terms
Hi, my name is Charles Devinat. I live in Montreal and I study at Ahuntsic College in Electrical Engineering: Automation and Control. My glossary can help other students to learn new words about my line of study. There are 20 terms with the translations in French, the pronunciation, the definition, the part of speech and an example. I found the words on the internet after typing automation and electricity. I want my reader to learn with my glossary and do more research about robots being more current in the Amazon company.
