Glossary Support

Terms, brand names and some other words and phrases should usually stay in the original language or be translated in a specific way. Langshop allows users to add such words in the Glossary. Here you can add a chosen word or phrase and apply either “Never Translate” or “Always Translate” rule, keeping it spelled appropriately on the chosen languages.
