INTRODUCTION
The machinery described in the texts, pictures and
soundtracks is both complicated and extensive. All of it
has its function in relation to other pieces of equipment. In
order to simplify things a little it is useful to group the
machinery according to sub-systems, e.g. air, steam,
freshwater, seawater, fuel, lubrication oil, etc.

As you see here, one piece of equipment (or one picture of the equipment) can fit into two categories.
Some of the equipment is fairly difficult for those of you who haven’t done work (or work practice) in
engine rooms.

In order to provide some guidance the names of most of the machines are listed here, but not in English.
However, the words in this list are in European languages where the names are very much similar to the
English ones.
2. BINGO
It is part of the teacher’s job to read the English names of the equipment listed in the table out loud – so
as to animate a game of BINGO. The English equivalents follow below the table!

needs to call those names the same number of times as a signal to the group that they need to look
again for an equivalent.
