Europe’s soccer governing body UEFA has decided to bring out a trilingual football dictionary.

The dictionary is set to contain around two thousand entries. The words and terms will define all the words used by FIFA, UEFA, the professional players as well as the fans.

The words will include all of the words used to describe a game, stadiums and security, equipment, medical matters, the media, management and administration.

The dictionary will be written in English, German and French.

The dictionary is set to be released ahead of the Bundesliga match in Munich on May 7 between Bayern Munich's and Arminia Bielefeld.

Hope this'll make clear at last what "offside" means.
