TERMINOLOGY CONTROL
Protect the words your brand cannot afford to get wrong.
Use the REEID Translate Pro Glossary to control how brand names, product names, technical terminology, legal wording and preferred translations are handled across supported WordPress content.
CONSISTENT TERMINOLOGY
Give the translation workflow explicit instructions for important terms.
Apply terminology rules across Gutenberg, Elementor, WooCommerce and supported Cloud Assist workflows.
- Protect names
- Guide preferred wording
- Target individual languages
Keep as-is
Protect names and terms that must stay unchanged.
Translate as
Force a preferred translation for an important source term.
Per language
Apply terminology globally or only to selected target languages.
WHAT THE GLOSSARY CAN DO
Two rule types cover the most important terminology decisions.
Use Keep as-is when a term must remain unchanged. Use Translate as when a source term must consistently become your preferred target wording.
RULE TYPE 01
Keep as-is
Use this when a word or phrase must remain unchanged in every translation.
Good examples
REEID Translate Pro
WooCommerce
Elementor
Gutenberg
Cloud Assist
BYOK
Classic Editor
Example result
Source:
Translate WordPress pages with Elementor and Gutenberg.
Arabic:
ترجم صفحات WordPress باستخدام Elementor وGutenberg.
The protected terms remain exactly as written.
RULE TYPE 02
Translate as
Use this when a source term must always become a specific target term.
Example rule
Source term:
AI-powered translation plugin
Translate as:
translation plugin for real websites
This tells the translation workflow to use your preferred wording instead of choosing an alternative automatically.
LANGUAGE TARGETING
Apply one rule everywhere—or tailor it by language.
Glossary rules may apply to all languages or to one specific language such as Arabic, Danish or Chinese.
ALL LANGUAGES
Use for universal terminology
Best for brand names, product names and terminology that should behave the same way in every target language.
SPECIFIC LANGUAGE
Use for localized preferences
Best when preferred terminology or wording changes between individual target languages.
RECOMMENDED USE CASES
Use the Glossary where terminology carries business meaning.
The strongest use cases are names, short technical terms, product phrases, legal wording and industry-specific terminology.
Protect names
- Brand names
- Product names
- Plugin names
- Feature names
Control terminology
- Technical terms
- Legal terms
- Compliance wording
- Industry-specific language
Guide wording
- Preferred translations
- Short marketing phrases
- Words that must remain untranslated
- Required target wording
BEST PRACTICES
Short, exact rules usually produce better results.
Shorter glossary entries are easier to match and generally interfere less with natural sentence construction.
BETTER
Elementor
Gutenberg
Cloud Assist
BYOK
WooCommerce
AVOID WHEN POSSIBLE
Very long sentence fragments
Phrases crossing formatting tags
Whole paragraphs as glossary terms
Protecting a long phrase may leave that entire phrase untranslated.
This is correct Keep as-is behavior, but it may not read naturally inside otherwise translated content.
Keep as-is:
Translate WordPress pages, posts, WooCommerce products,
Elementor layouts, Gutenberg content
IMPORTANT LIMITATION
Glossary matching is text-based.
For the strongest match, the source phrase should not cross HTML or formatting boundaries.
STORED CONTENT

VISUALLY DISPLAYED
REEID Translate Pro is an AI-powered
WordPress translation plugin
The visible sentence looks continuous, but internally the formatting splits it. A rule for the complete sentence may therefore fail to match.
BETTER RULE
Translate as:
is an AI-powered WordPress translation plugin
→ translation plugin for real websites
OR PROTECT THE NAME ONLY
Keep as-is:

PRACTICAL WORKFLOW
Add terminology rules before translating.
- Add glossary rows before starting translation.
- Use Keep as-is for names and technical terms.
- Use Translate as for preferred wording.
- Keep rules short and specific.
- Translate the page, post, Elementor layout or WooCommerce product.
- Review the translated output in context.
- Clear Cloud Assist cache and retranslate if old wording remains.
WHEN TO CLEAR CACHE
Changed a glossary rule but still see the old wording?
Cloud Assist may reuse a previous translation. Clear the relevant page or product cache, then translate again so the updated terminology rule can be applied.
CURRENT GLOSSARY BEHAVIOR
Terminology enforcement across supported workflows.
The Glossary is designed as a practical terminology control layer. It is not a complete CAT-tool termbase or translation-memory system with style-preserving segment locks.
Currently supported
- Gutenberg pages and posts
- Elementor pages
- WooCommerce inline product translations
- Cloud Assist translations
- Cached Cloud Assist translations
TERMINOLOGY CONSISTENCY
Make important terminology predictable across your multilingual site.
Protect names, define preferred wording, target rules by language and review the final translated output without losing control of essential terminology.
