- Abelian — A structural mathematical term transposed into neuro-cybernetics and artificial neural network modeling, defining a symmetric operation or structure where the order of components does not change the final result (commutativity). In physiological modeling and neuropsychology, abelian groups or networks are utilized to simulate parallel symmetric processing of sensory stimuli or to map automatic synaptic circuits in the brain where signal synchronization does not depend on the strict sequence of incoming inputs.
- Adapter — A device, intermediate part, or electronic circuit that allows the connection, joint usage, or compatibility of two devices, components, or systems with different structural or functional characteristics. In computer science, the term can describe a software design pattern or a hardware component translating the interface of a class or port to match another system's requirements.
- Manageable — Capable of being administered, managed, governed, or controlled without major difficulties; suitable for an efficient organizational structure. In computer science and networking, it refers to equipment (such as a switch) or a software platform that allows configuration, monitoring, and operational parameter control by an administrator.
- Air transport — A logistical system, economic activity, or branch of transport that ensures the rapid movement of passengers, cargo, mail, or equipment through airspace using civil or military aircraft. Its organizational structure includes airplane fleets, transit airports, and international traffic management networks, providing the fastest means of transcontinental connection.

The term is frequently used in 19th and 20th-century diplomatic and political documents.
- ALCATEL — A historic French technology and telecommunications company, originally founded in 1898 and globally famous for manufacturing mobile phones, network equipment, digital infrastructure, and submarine cables. Currently, the Alcatel trademark is utilized under license by various global entities, including Nokia for professional network hardware and TCL Communication for consumer mobile devices.
- Alumnus — A graduate of an educational institution (high school, university), viewed in relation to the school they attended; in a historical sense, it designated a boarding student maintained at the expense of a cultural institution or a foundation.

- Alveolar structures — The act of forming cellular structures or cavities; as a plural noun, it denotes the totality of small natural cavities within an organ or material (such as pulmonary or dental alveoli). In linguistics, it refers to the class of consonants whose articulation takes place at the ridge of the upper teeth, defining a major structural category in phonetics.
- Alveoli — Plural form for the rare noun 'alveol' or a learned structural variant (borrowed directly from Latin or English) that denotes the totality of small natural cavities, microscopic sacs, or cells present in an organ, organism, or expanded synthetic material. In a respiratory context, it defines the terminal lung sacs responsible for blood oxygenation.
- Angeografie — A rare neological spelling form or old literary variant for 'angiogeography' or used through conceptual extension in geography; a borderline discipline that studies the geographical distribution, spatial localization, and territorial ramifications of hydrographic networks, irrigation canals, or transport routes, viewed as a planetary circulatory system. In certain old academic contexts, the term was also used as a visual analogy for the precise mapping of watercourses within a region.
- Anti-antibody — A specific antibody produced by the immune system that recognizes and binds directly to another antibody molecule (immunoglobulin); an anti-idiotypic antibody. In immunology, they are key to regulating immune responses and are widely used in diagnostic laboratory assays.
- Training — The act of training and its result; the methodical process of preparing an organism for athletic performance, or the action of involving a person or a group in a collective activity. In modern computer science, it represents the structural optimization phase of an algorithmic model or neural network by processing a massive data set, while in mechanics it denotes forcing a body to follow the movement of another element in rotation or displacement.
- Access Point — A polysemantic abbreviation used globally across various fields; in communication networks it stands for 'Access Point', the hardware device that allows wireless connection of equipment to a network; in medicine it indicates the 'Antero-Posterior' position used in radiology, and in journalism it designates the 'Associated Press' news agency.
