How Does A Glossary Help Your Business?
A glossary solves the issue of inconsistent translations, where a single word can have multiple interpretations. For example, one person might use “lorry” instead of “truck,” or “notebook” instead of “laptop,” leading to variations that depend on personal preference or cultural background. This inconsistency occurs across all languages.
While these variations may be acceptable individually, maintaining consistent word usage is crucial for your business. It ensures that different terms aren’t misinterpreted or incorrectly translated into another language, preventing potential confusion or errors.
How Our Glossary Development Service Works
We assist in creating a glossary that evaluates the language your business frequently uses. A well-crafted glossary:
- Standardises your text
- Ensures consistency within and across all documents
- Guarantees that content is translated consistently into each target language
Our translators ensure that the translated vocabulary is culturally appropriate, drawing on their deep understanding of both the language and cultural nuances. The glossary also considers variations in dialects or vocabularies across different regions, ensuring precise and relevant translations
Why You Should Take
A Glossary of Common Terms Seriously
If you’ve ever needed to retranslate content, you’ll understand how a glossary can streamline your process, saving time and reducing costs. Many translation errors stem not from translator proficiency but from inconsistencies in the original text that lead to confusion and mistakes.

A Glossary As A Central Reference Point of Your Communication
A well-developed glossary serves as a crucial reference for the key terms commonly used by your business. It ensures that content translated into various languages or dialects remains consistent, reducing confusion and minimising errors by translators. This is particularly important for large businesses with multiple team members working on different aspects of a project, where varying terminology can lead to inconsistencies. By standardising the language used across your communications, a glossary helps maintain clarity and accuracy. Contact us today to discuss how we can assist you.
