Glossary
The Glossary tab edits your user glossary CSV (glossary.userGlossary in config). Entries here are terminology hints for translate-ui and proofread-ui — they are not used by documentation translation.
The tab is hidden when glossary.userGlossary is not configured.
CSV columns
| Column | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Original language string | Source term or phrase |
| locale | Target locale, or * for all locales |
| Translation | Preferred translation |
| Force | When checked, the term must be translated exactly as given |
Add a row
Use the form at the top of the tab:
- Enter Original, locale (
*or a target locale code), and Translation. - Optionally check Force.
- Click Add.
The CSV file is created on first add if it does not exist yet.
Edit or delete
- Inline edit — change fields directly in the table and click Save on that row.
- Delete — remove a row with the delete control.
Changes take effect on the next translate-ui, proofread-ui, or sync UI step.
Filters
Filter by original text, locale (including *), or translation text substring, then click Apply.
Dashboard edits and glossary auto-add
When you fix a UI string in the UI strings or UI plurals tab, the next translate-ui run can append that correction to the glossary automatically if glossary.autoAddUserEditedToGlossary is true. Use the Glossary tab to review, adjust, or remove those auto-added rows.
