Tomedes Upgrades Key Term Glossary with Translation Feature

One of the biggest challenges in translation and localization is maintaining terminological consistency. Without a clear reference for key terms, translations can become inconsistent, leading to miscommunication, confusion, and even costly errors. Whether you're a professional translator, a business expanding into global markets, or a content creator working in multiple languages, ensuring that terminology remains uniform across documents is a constant struggle.

To make this process even smoother, Tomedes has rolled out a major update to its Key Terms Glossary, previously known as the Contextual Glossary Generator. This update brings an essential new feature: the ability to select a target language, which means that the glossary can now automatically translate identified key terms from the source text. This enhancement saves time, ensures translation accuracy, and reduces the hassle of manual term translation.

Let’s dive into what’s new, how this tool works, and why this update is a game-changer for professionals like you.

What’s new in the Key Terms Glossary?

Tomedes has been at the forefront of AI-powered translation tools, constantly evolving to meet the needs of language professionals and businesses. Formerly known as "Contextual Glossary Generator," the Key Terms Glossary has undergone significant improvements:

1. A new name that reflects its purpose

Previously called the Key Term Glossary, this tool is now simply the Key Terms Glossary. This rebranding makes it clearer and easier to understand for users who rely on glossaries for industry-specific translations.

2. Target language selection

The most exciting feature of this update is the ability to choose a target language. Before, the tool would analyze a source text and generate a glossary of key terms with their definitions. Now, if you select a target language, the tool will automatically provide translations of the identified terms. This makes it an incredibly valuable resource for multilingual projects.

3. Improved user experience

By automating glossary creation and term translation, the updated tool helps you work faster and more accurately. Instead of manually looking up technical or industry-specific terms, you get a ready-to-use glossary that ensures consistent translations across your content.

4. Download CSV and XLS format reports

The Key Term Glossary now allows users to download reports in CSV and XLS formats, making glossary management more efficient. The CSV format ensures universal compatibility for tools like Google Sheets and Excel, while XLS offers advanced functionality for organizing and filtering key terms. With these export options, users can edit, share, and store glossary data seamlessly, improving productivity and ensuring consistency across multilingual projects.

How the Key Terms Glossary works

If you haven’t used this tool before, you’re in for a treat! It’s user-friendly, fast, and completely free. Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Input your text

Simply paste or upload your source text into the tool. You can also enter a URL to extract text from a webpage. The tool supports multiple file formats, making it versatile for different projects. Check out this free sample to see it in action!

Step 2: Select your target language 

If you need translations for key terms, you can now choose a target language. For example, if your source text is in English and you’re translating into Spanish, the tool will automatically generate Spanish translations for the key terms it extracts.

Step 3: Automatic glossary generation

The tool analyzes your text and extracts the most important terms based on context and subject matter. It then provides:

• A list of key terms

• Their definitions (when applicable)

• Translations (if a target language is selected)

Step 4: Download & use your glossary

You can download the generated glossary in multiple formats, including CSV and PDF. The downloaded file also contains a unique URL, allowing you to reopen it later in your browser.

This streamlined process ensures that you get a high-quality glossary in minutes, saving you from manual research and tedious term translations.

Why this update matters

With the addition of target language translations, this tool is now more powerful than ever. But how does it impact you and your work? Let’s break it down:

1. Saves you time and effort

Manually creating a glossary of terms can take hours—especially when dealing with technical, legal, or medical translations. This tool automates that process, giving you instant access to key terms and their translations.

2. Ensures translation consistency

One of the biggest challenges in multilingual projects is maintaining terminological consistency. Using a predefined glossary ensures that the same translations are used throughout the project, reducing errors and improving the quality of the final translation.

3. Supports multilingual content creation

If you’re a business expanding into new markets, this tool ensures that product descriptions, contracts, and technical documents use consistent terminology across multiple languages. It’s also an excellent resource for content creators, technical writers, and localization experts.

4. Perfect for industry-specific translations

Different industries use specialized terminology. Whether you work in healthcare, law, technology, or finance, having a glossary tailored to your field ensures that translations are accurate and appropriate.

For example:

• Legal translations require precise terminology to avoid misinterpretations.

• Medical translations need accurate terms to ensure clarity and prevent errors.

• Marketing translations must maintain brand messaging consistency across languages.

This tool ensures that industry-specific terms are identified and translated correctly.

Conclusion 

The latest update to the Key Term Glossary makes it an indispensable tool for translators, businesses, and content creators. With target language translation, industry-specific term extraction, and seamless glossary generation, it saves time, boosts translation accuracy, and enhances workflow efficiency.

If you're working on multilingual content or need a consistent terminology reference, this tool is for you.
