The Glossary in Mindsmith helps ensure consistent translations across your lessons and courses. By adding key terms, acronyms, or branded language, you can guide the AI translator to handle those terms the way you want every time.
This is especially useful for large organizations, regulated industries, or teams that use specialized jargon. Instead of correcting the same word repeatedly in each lesson, you can define it once in the Glossary and have it applied automatically.
To add glossary terms:
From the Dashboard sidebar, open Settings and select Glossary.
In the Edit Glossary window, enter your terms in pairs:
The source term (in your base language).
The preferred translation (in the target language).
Each pair should be separated by a tab.
Put each pair on a new line.
When finished, click Save Glossary.
The Glossary will now inform the AI whenever you generate a translation, ensuring that the specified term is handled consistently.
Best practices for using the Glossary:
Add brand names, product terms, and acronyms that need to stay the same across all languages.
Use consistent casing (capitalization) to match how you want terms displayed in content.
Keep glossary entries updated as your terminology evolves.
Remember: glossary entries apply to new translations. If you’ve already created language versions, you’ll need to edit those directly.
