Consistent terminology is one of the biggest challenges in translation. Whether you're localizing a medical app, translating legal documents, or working on a game, using the wrong term can confuse users or even cause harm. That's why we built the Glossary Marketplace — a community-driven platform where translators share and download domain-specific terminology lists.

Why Terminology Consistency Matters

In professional translation, a glossary (also known as a termbase or terminology database) ensures that specific terms are always translated the same way. For example, in medical translation, "hypertension" should consistently be translated as the same term in the target language — not sometimes as "high blood pressure" and other times differently. Without a shared glossary, inconsistencies creep in, especially when multiple translators work on the same project.

How the Marketplace Works

The Glossary Marketplace is simple to use:

Browse — Search by language pair, domain (medical, legal, gaming, tech, finance), or keyword. No login required.
Preview — View all terms in a glossary before deciding to use it.
Clone — Copy any public glossary to your personal collection with one click. Edit it freely afterward.
Share — Publish your own glossaries to help others in the community.

Available Categories

We've organized glossaries into practical categories that cover the most common translation domains:

Medical — Clinical terms, pharmaceutical vocabulary, patient-facing language
Legal — Contract terminology, compliance terms, court vocabulary
Gaming — UI elements, game mechanics, RPG terminology
Tech — Software development terms, cloud computing, API documentation
Finance — Banking terms, investment vocabulary, accounting language
Education — Academic terminology, e-learning content
Marketing — Brand messaging, advertising copy, SEO terms

Using Glossaries with AI Translation

The real power of glossaries in Glot is their integration with AI translation. When you activate a glossary and use the AI Translate feature, your terminology rules are automatically enforced. The AI will always use your specified translations for glossary terms, ensuring perfect consistency across your entire project.
