The Glossary feature in Verloop.io is designed to enhance the accuracy and consistency of translations within your bots. When translating from one language to another, certain terms, such as brand names or specific phrases, should remain unchanged or be translated in a specific way. The Glossary allows you to define these terms and their translations, ensuring your bot communicates effectively in multiple languages.
For example, translating “Welcome to Verloop.io” into Hindi should keep “Verloop.io” unchanged while translating “Welcome” into a commonly used and colloquial term rather than an overly formal or outdated term. Similarly, when translating “Get started with Verloop.io” into Arabic, “Verloop.io” should remain unchanged. By using the Glossary feature, you can control how specific terms are translated, maintaining the intended meaning and context.
