    Glossary and word list

    Every concept has one approved Turkish and English term. The glossary lists interface terms; the word list gives preferred and avoided wording.

    • For a concept, use the term in the table; do not use the synonyms in the “Avoid” column (I18N-17).
    • If a new term is needed, propose it to the content owner; it is added to this page and to the translation system’s glossary together.
    • Component names are not translated: Button, TextInput, Badge. A Turkish page title may use the descriptive name: “Tarih seçici”.
