If you choose to use this tool, make sure your list only includes source language terms with one meaning. Otherwise, you risk confusing your translator or causing mistranslations to occur.<\/p>\r\n              <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n            <div class=\"col-md-6\">\r\n              <div class=\"tip\">\r\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"\/wp-content\/themes\/gengo_theme\/images\/glossaries\/frequency.png\">\r\n                <p><strong>Frequency vs importance<\/strong><br>\r\n                Many people incorrectly assume that ideal glossary terms are those that appear most often. In fact, the most useful glossaries are typically those that seek to clarify the meaning of ambiguous or specialized terms, or achieve consistent and accurate translation of specific brand language. Choose your words carefully.<\/p>\r\n              <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n            <div class=\"col-md-6\">\r\n              <div class=\"tip\">\r\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"\/wp-content\/themes\/gengo_theme\/images\/glossaries\/speech.png\">\r\n                <p><strong>Parts of speech<\/strong><br>\r\n                For the same reason it\u2019s important to be careful with homonyms, it\u2019s worth thinking about parts of speech. For example, there are many instances where the noun and the verb are the same in the source language (e.g., \u2018access\u2019 in English), but treated differently in the target language (e.g., \u2018\u30a2\u30af\u30bb\u30b9\u2019 (noun) and \u2018\u30a2\u30af\u30bb\u30b9\u3059\u308b\u2019 (verb) in Japanese). Terms that can be written in both singular and plural form also deserve special consideration. If your text contains both, we recommend including both forms in your glossary.<\/p>\r\n              <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n            <div class=\"col-md-6\">\r\n              <div class=\"tip\">\r\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"\/wp-content\/themes\/gengo_theme\/images\/glossaries\/capitalization.png\">\r\n                <p><strong>Capitalization<\/strong><br>\r\n                As a general rule, we recommend using lowercase unless the term is a proper noun.<\/p>\r\n              <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n            <div class=\"col-md-6\">\r\n              <div class=\"tip\">\r\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"\/wp-content\/themes\/gengo_theme\/images\/glossaries\/audience.png\">\r\n                <p><strong>Homonyms<\/strong><br>\r\n                When you\u2019re developing your glossary, keep the end user in mind.
