MS Terminology for Bulgarian Jul 1, 2023

I've converted the Bulgarian TermCollection file into an sdltm for easy use in Studio. Date of download from MS is 29 April 2023. I can send you a Google Drive download link if any Bulgarian translators have missed the deadline.

Apparently all is there Jul 1, 2023

Just as test I tried to look for the Dutch translation of the word "file" (which is "bestand"), couldn't find it.


I just performed your search...

Clipboard01

And the translation is right there.


Getting used to the new form might take some time, but apparently everything is there. I just wish we could still be able to select subsets based on products.

I just tried the interface, and the search based on products appears to be possible:

Microsoft UI search

In order to search based on the products, you have to search the UI strings, not the glossary. Here are the links:

Search the glossary (basic terminology search - "official" Microsoft terminology)

Search the UI strings (can be filtered by product - strings from all or most Microsoft products)

Here is the Microsoft Langauge Portal link Aug 30, 2023

Hi all,
I'd like to reassure you that the language portal in question hasn't disappeared; Microsoft simply
changed the interface a little bit. Here's the link:

Why don't I get any translated terms displayed when searching the new Microsoft Terminology Search? Oct 6, 2023

I searched on the simple term interface, and all I get are definitions in English even though I have selected Swedish as locale in the drop-down.

Seems to be working Oct 13, 2023

Hi Frederik,
I searched on the simple term interface, and all I get are definitions in English even though I have selected Swedish as locale in the drop-down.

Just tried it and am getting the translations. The definitions are in English (first list box: concept), the translated terms appear in the selected target language (second list box).

It is quite possible that the former UI behaved differently. I liked it better than the new one.

Indeed. From my personal experience this usage dates back at least twenty years, and it probably goes back a lot longer.


That doesn't make it any better. I continue to use the verb "to deprecate" in its proper sense, and to deprecate the way in which it has been adopted by people who (presumably) never knew of it before (who may well be the same people who think "momentarily" means "in a short time from now").
