Loop（线圈） - Used to describe the loop of top thread that forms behind the needle when the needle has gone all the way down and just starts to rise. The hook grabs this loop to form a stitch.（用于描述当针一直往下打到一定位置而要向上打时，在针后面形成的顶部线的线圈。钩子会带着线圈形成一个针。）

Looping（线圈） - The appearance of embroidery when the stitches are too loose. Usually caused by insufficient tensioning. （当针太稀少的时候织物的一种外表）。一般是由于张力不够造成的。） Low Speed Function（低速功能） - User Parameter that sets the machine to run at a lower speed than that set by the speed control knob. （用户参数，可设置机器以一种低于控制杆已设定速度的速度运行。）

Lower Tensioner（下张紧轮） - Set of tension disks for each needle on the machine located between the primary tensioner and the take up lever. Has a rotating disk and holds the check spring. Used for controlling thread flow. See also tensioner. （机器上位于大张紧轮和紧线器,控制杆之间的每个针的张紧轮设备）

Machine Language（机器语言） - The codes and formats used by different machine manufacturers within the embroidery industry. Common formats included Barudan, Brother, Fortron, Happy, Marco, Meistergram, Melco, Pfaff Stellar, Tajima, Toyota, Ultramatic and ZSK. Most digitizing systems can save designs in these languages so the computer disk can be read by the embroidery machine. （绣花行业内不同机器生产厂家所使用的代码和格式。一般的格式包括：百灵达，兄弟，Fortron,幸福，Marco, Meistergram美高，Pfaff Stellar田岛，丰田，Ultramatic和ZSK。大多数的打带系统可以将文件保存为以上这些格式，这样电脑磁盘上的带就可以被绣花机读取。）

Mercerized Yarns（丝光纱） - Mercerized yarns are sent through a caustic bath which swells the fibers making them more even and uniform, resulting in a luster. It also slightly preshrinks the yarn and makes it stronger thus improving shrinkage, durability and permanent press characteristics of the finished garment. The bath changes the physical structure slightly, making the fibers more readily accept dye which enables deeper, richer colors. Finally, it improves fabric absorbency thereby improving the comfort factor.（丝光纱都要通过纺织用的腐蚀性液体，这种液体使织物更均匀更一致，从而形成较好的光泽度。它也需要先将纱线收缩并使其更坚固，这样可以提高其收缩，耐久度和完成的织物的永久性压力性质 。这种液体稍微改变了其物理结构，使得织物更易于染色，从而使织物颜色更深，颜色更丰富。最后，它提高了织物吸光性，这样提高了衣服舒服程度。）

Merchandiser（绣花商） - A sales organization that buys and sells embroidery, usually it has no embroidery equipment.（一个购买和销售绣花的销售机构，一般自身并无绣花设备。）
