**Language of Wider Communication** - A language that is spoken over a broad area and by many people.

**Gateway Language** - A Gateway Language (GL) is a language of wider communication that we have identified as being one of the languages into which we will translate all of our translation tools. The set of Gateway Languages is the smallest number of languages through which content can be delivered to every other language of the world, through translation by bilingual speakers. **Heart Language Translation** - A Heart Language (HL) translation is a translation into the heart language of its intended users.
**Other Language** - The Other Languages (OLs) are all of the languages of the world that are not Gateway Languages. We translate our Bible translation tools into the Gateway Languages so that people can use those tools to translate the Bible into the Other Languages. **Gateway Language Translation** - A Gateway Language (GL) translation is a translation into a Language of Wider Communication, and is meant to be a source text for bilingual people to translate into their Heart Language. (The GL translation is not meant for people who speak that language as their heart language.)
**Literal Translation** - A translation that focuses on reproducing the form of the source text in the target text, even if the meaning changes as a result. **Literal Translation** - A translation that focuses on reproducing the form of the source text in the target text, even if the meaning changes as a result.
