Upload a glossary

Upload your existing glossaries via CSV file in the glossary window on the web translator or desktop apps.

Formatting guidelines:

• Your file should be UTF-8 encoded (saved as CSV UTF-8 (comma delimited) (*.csv))
• The first row of the CSV file should start with the first entry
• Your file should not include any comments
• Your file should not exceed 10MB
• Your file should include only one entry per each source text (no duplicates are allowed)

Upload a glossary with one language pair

If your file includes a glossary for one language pair (e.g., EN->DE)

1. Go to our web translator
2. Log in with your DeepL account
3. Click Glossaries in the navigation bar on the left-hand side
4. Click +New glossary
5. Click Upload an existing glossary
6. Enter a glossary name
7. Select a CSV file with two columns (e.g., artist, Maler)
8. A separator and the language pair should be detected automatically - edit manually if needed
9. Click Upload glossary

Upload a glossary with multiple language pairs

If your file includes a glossary with several language pairs, you need to add the source language label and the target language label after the glossary entries in the following order:

1. Source language term
2. Target language term
3. Source language label
4. Target language label

E.g.,

translate,traducir,EN,ES
merci,grazie,FR,IT

1. Select a CSV file with four columns
2. Since you have specified the corresponding language pair for every glossary entry in your file, you should not select the language pair 
3. A separator should be detected automatically - edit manually if needed
4. Click Upload glossary
