There is an English (USA) term color which we want to translate into an English (UK) variant: colour. For this purpose, we create a relevant entry in the XTM Cloud Terminology module:

  • Term: color English (USA);

  • Translation: colour English (UK).

  1. When a project with the term color-coded is created, and the Highlight all term variants option (stemming)is disabled, the word color will not be highlighted in blue (signifying an available translation) since XTM treats hyphenated compounds as one “word”, so in this case it would be a single different word.

  2. When a project with the term color-coded is created, and the Highlight all term variants option (stemming) is enabled, the word color will be highlighted in blue(signifying an available translation) since XTM will correctly recognize a common stemmed form for both words, which is color.

See a couple of example sentences in XTM Workbench containing the word color in various combinations when stemming is enabled.
