        too bad it doesn't seem anyone has used it for anything (yet ;)
      • 2017-02-01 03226, 2017

      • Freso
        I didn't know about the feature until a few days ago.
      • 2017-02-01 03240, 2017

      • CatQuest
        ther is the tab "context"
      • 2017-02-01 03247, 2017

      • Freso
        Old (as of 1–2 years ago) Transifex didn't have this.
      • 2017-02-01 03219, 2017

      • CatQuest
        also glossary, whenever there *is* a word, there is never any actual term translated on it :/
      • 2017-02-01 03227, 2017

      • Freso
        Yep. It would certainly be good if Picard devs used the "context" string bit more, but that's not going to happen for 1.4 (due to string freeze).
      • 2017-02-01 03240, 2017

      • CatQuest nods sadly
      • 2017-02-01 03249, 2017

      • Freso
        CatQuest: Glossaries are made and maintained by the language translation team. You have to add entries to it yourself.
      • 2017-02-01 03213, 2017

      • CatQuest
        love to, how do i do it?
      • 2017-02-01 03242, 2017

      • Freso
        Very useful for making sure you keep a consistent translation throughout and not translate one English term to five different ones in the language you're translating to....

        Very useful for making sure you keep a consistent translation throughout and not translate one English term to five different ones in the language you're translating to.... YES indeed

      • CatQuest
