Try to do a search with your browser for "Hals" or "Notenhals" and
you'll immediately find stem (ofcourse using the big-page or the pdf
not the splitted html).
Overall the translations are not complete, likely because of a lack of
contributors^^, I doubt this will be different for a german glossary.
