Dear all,

A couple of comments regarding the format for entries for the
Terminology project:

1) The entry in the translation field should begin with a lower case
letter, *not* an UPPERCASE letter, unless the term is a proper noun.
(Of course, some languages don't have cases, so you can ignore this
comment if it is not relevant).

2) The Definition and the Comment should be treated as proper
sentences in your language. For most languages, this means beginning
the entry using UPPERCASE for the first letter, and ending it with a
period/ full stop. This is a correct example from a Comment from the
Luganda team:

Ekyokuleberawo; ku lugo lwe yajju waliwo ekifo wosabidwa ku kakasa nga
musajja oba mukala awo olina kuberawo kimu.

Best,
Martin
