Open Translation Tools

Glossmaster

Glossmaster is a glossary tool that provides a list of 2500 information technology terms in English with definitions.  Many of the terms provided are from software programs written in English along with any other helpful information. 

What is it used for?

With Glossmaster's core listing of terms and definitions, language teams can then easily translate the terms and definitions into local languages.  For example, Glossmaster was originally developed for the African Network for Localization (ANLoc) and many such teams used Glossmaster in Africa to translate information technology terms and concepts into culture-understandable ways so that more people can be introduced to technological resources and concepts.  Glossmaster's focus on African language is its main asset as a translation tool, however, the capacity for expansion into other non-African languages is there.
