Translation Notes is a set of open-licensed exegetical notes that provide historical, cultural, and linguistic information for translators. It provides translators and checkers with pertinent, just-in-time information to help them make the best possible translation decisions.

You can learn more about Translation Notes in the Appendix to the Translation Notes rc://en_tn/00-About_tN/tN-3-Appendix.md. It has the following sections:

  • Decisions Concerning Translation Notes
  • How to use Translation Notes
  • Types of Translation Notes
