It is also possible to add new terms to a Glossary through the Editor by clicking twice on the term you wish to add and clicking on "+Add term".

⚠️ Kindly be aware that this functionality is accessible exclusively when clicking on terms within the source segment.

The following window will open. You must type the translated term, select an option for "part of speech" and acronym/full and click on save.

It is also possible to choose in which Glossaries you wish to save the new term by selecting the "Save to specific glossaries?" option. A list containing all Glossaries linked to the Project will open. In case you don't select this option, the term will be saved in all of them.
