Such a device is especially useful when more than one person works on the same project, because it helps keep everyone using the same English terms. However, the sources often use some words to signal more than one sense, depending on context. A translation glossary is therefore a glossary of word senses, not a glossary of words. Check back often to this page, because these glossaries are likely to develop for the entire life of WA's translation resources project.
