Could you be a bit more specific in exactly what words you're searching for?

My guess is words used in the business place and/or specialized words used in different professions. Sounds like you'll be making a business trip to Japan soon, huh vicky_jp?

Thank you Friends..
I just got into a japanese company in India ..I may visit Japan in a year or two..It is a vehicles spare parts manufacturing company..I can speak the basic Japanese..But I come across many new technical words every day both inside the manufacturing section and in the office(Documentation) section.So I feel bit hard with my work..I wanted to make my job easy by studying the words as early as possible.

Hmm, if it's online documentation, you might find Popjisyo helpful. It's been brought up here before.

My other suggestion is to just get a kanji dictionary and look up the individual characters. While tedious, you should be able to compile your own list for future reference.
