Translators will need to understand the meaning of each Bible passage in order to translate it accurately. The following resources have been created in order to help translators do this: **translationNotes**, **translationWords**, and **translationQuestions**.
It is the duty of the translation team, to the best of their ability, to make sure that each Bible passage they translate has the meaning that the writer of that Bible passage intended it to communicate. To help translators do this, **translationNotes**, **translationWords**, and **translationQuestions** have been created.
**translationNotes** is a collection of cultural, linguistic, and exegetical notes that help to describe and explain some of the Bible background that the translator needs to know to translate accurately. These notes also inform translators about different ways that they might express the same meaning. The translationNotes for each book of the Bible have a section about the book, a section about each chapter, and a section about each chunk or verse. See https://door43.org/u/WycliffeAssociates/en_tn/.

**translationWords** is a collection of key terms found in Open Bible Stories and the Bible that are important to translate correctly. Each of these words or phrases has a short article written about it as well as cross-references to other places where that term is used in either Open Bible Stories or the Bible. This is to show the translator other ways that the translationWord is used and to ensure that it has been translated correctly in those places, too. See https://door43.org/u/WycliffeAssociates/en_tw.
The **translationWords** are key terms found in Open Bible Stories and the Bible that are important to translate correctly. Each of these words or phrases has a small article written about it as well as cross-references to other places where that term is used in either Open Bible Stories or the Bible. This is to show the translator other ways that the translationWord is used and to ensure that it has been translated correctly in those places, too. See https://door43.org/u/WycliffeAssociates/en_tw.
The **translationQuestions** are comprehension questions that can be used to check your translation. If you and others from the target language community can correctly answer a question using only the Target Language translation, then this indicates that the information that the question asked about was likely translated accurately. See https://door43.org/u/WycliffeAssociates/en_tq.

**Translation Helps pdf files** have all of the above resources for each book of the Bible. In addition, they have Translation Topics that are addressed in the Translation Notes and Translation Words for each book. You can download these to your computer to use off line.
