The best reference resource to help a reader determine the meaning of technical words in a text is a glossary.

u sure?

Yes, I'm sure. A glossary is specifically designed to provide definitions of terms used in a particular text, especially technical or specialized vocabulary. While a dictionary can also define words, a glossary is often more tailored to the specific terms used within a specific work or field. Therefore, for understanding technical words in a given text, a glossary is typically the best choice.
