Background
Terminology
- Acclaro is the translation agency
- Lokalise is the tool for managing the translation work
- Source strings refer to the original content in the original language (English in this case)
- A glossary...
- Is a terminology database of important terms like product/brand/feature names, acronyms, etc.
- Contains source language term and approved target language translations
- Eliminates ambiguity, guarantees consistency and accuracy
- A style guide...
- Provides guidelines for how content should be translated in order to stay on-brand within a target locale
- Describes formality, tone and voice,
- Contains standards for grammar, dates, times, currencies, units, etc.
Linguistic Assets
The glossary and style guide below were put together by Acclaro as a starting point for the translation work. Both of them will continuously evolve over time as they receive more content from Notion to translate.
The glossary does not contain all of the relevant terminology yet because Acclaro has only been exposed to a subset of the source strings since our engineers are still working on wrapping strings in the codebase.
Review Instructions
The goal here is to make sure that the glossary and style guide contain the right terms and guidelines to ensure that the translations will feel and sound like Notion.
