Overview
In TMS, glossaries help maintain voice and style across projects. It can also help linguists translate a specific word or phrase in a particular way. For example, a glossary might be used to manage non-translatable terms, such as a brand name or a slogan. This way, the system can assist in providing correct translations for highly technical terms.
Enterprise has developed a true concept-based Glossary system. This means that the Terminology Manager creates a new entry in the system which is made up of a concept and its matching terms. The concept is made up of a definition and other fields, and terms are words or phrases that fit the definition of the concept. Each term is specific to a language or a full locale.
