What is a Glossary?

The Glossary feature is available for projects belonging to accounts in the PRO tier or higher. It is used to manage all terms unique to your app and instructions on how strings should be translated. Every Glossary is assigned to a specific project. You can find it on the Project Overview page, right next to your Team and Translation Memory access.

Which kind of terms are managed with the Glossary?

There are 2 kind of terms which are usually managed through the Glossary:

  • Terms that should not be translated at all

    For example branded words like the name of your app or usage specific lingua (e.g. “to twitter”). Simply add these terms to the memory with our with description.

  • Terms that should always be translated only in a specific way

    For example if you using different branding in certain regions and developed specific translations accordingly. Add them like a regular Glossary term, then add the languages and the translations for that term accordingly

How does the translation editor interact with Glossary terms?

Glossary terms will be highlighted in the translation editor in red in the source language, when they are missing in the translation and in green if they were inserted correctly.

There is also a Filter option “With Issues” -> “Glossary Term missing” to find all entries where Glossary terms were not translated correctly.
