Suburban Dictionary

Having the same meaning as "glossary", this term refers to a special kind of dictionary containing terms specific to a particular field such as technology, medicine, or moviemaking. This term is derived from the combination between the prefix "sub-" (as in "subreddit", "subpost", "subtopic", "subchapter", "submenu") and "Urban Dictionary".

When researching game development terms, I found the Suburban Dictionary to be a treasure trove of jargon and a glossary of terms in industry-specific language.
