Work carefully as a team to include all that is in the text without adding to the meaning or taking away from it. * **Key Terms:** In a faithful translation, key terms are translated in a way that is accurate to the original language texts.

As you check key terms and work with other translators to agree on specific terms, make sure you choose words that best reflect the meaning of those key terms and use them consistently.
