Here's another list, just for Technic, and including the second word in
each part's name:

Category                      Parts  New Category
Technic Angle                    11  Connector
Technic Axle                     17  Axle
Technic Ball                      1  Gear
Technic Brick                    11  Beam
Technic Bush                      4  ? Gear, Connector, Axle ?
Technic Cam                       1  Liftarm
Technic Connector                 3  Connector
Technic Differential              2  Gear
Technic Engine                    5  Technic Engine (Car?)
Technic Forklift                  1  Beam
Technic Friction                  1  Connector
Technic Gear                     13  Gear
Technic Gearbox                   1  Gear
Technic Handle                    1
Technic Helicopter                1  ? Connector
Technic Hook                      1
Technic Large                     1  Wheel
Technic Liftarm                   9  Liftarm
Technic Link                      3  Axle ?
Technic Motorcycle                1  ?
Technic Pin                       7  Connector
Technic Plate                     7  Technic Plate ?
Technic Pole                      1  Connector
Technic Rotor                     3  Technic Plate ?
Technic Shock                     2  ?
Technic Ski                       1  Minifig
Technic Steering                  8
Technic Triangle                  1  Liftarm

Note to anyone not familiar with the LDraw names for Technic parts: the
above list may be misleading, because the names are not all formatted in a
clean hierarchical categorization mode.  For example, "Technic Gear"
includes several gears, a 'gear block', and some racks.
