What are language pairs?

Languages pairs allow more control over what tasks a resource can be assigned to by filtering exact pairs of languages instead simple Source and Target language.

A resource can only use either languages or language pairs.
If a resource has both set up, only the currently enabled option will be applied.

How to set language pairs?

To set language pairs, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Manager>Rolodex tables>Resources and click the edit button next to the resource you want to apply language pairs to.

  1. Click on “Add a language pair”.

  1. In the fields “Source language” and “Target language” select the language relevant for this resource.
    In this example, English and French are the source languages, and Arabic and Hebrew and the target.
    Once selected they will be added to the “List of language combinations” section.
    Click the “Save new” button.

  1. You now view all possible combinations of the source and target languages you selected earlier,
    and can remove combinations that you do not need for this resource!

    For example, if you want this resource to only be assignable to tasks from French>Arabic and From English>Hebrew, simply delete the redundant combinations (French>Hebrew and English>Arabic).

The icon for Languages in the resource’s profile and in the resources page will change to indicate language pairs are being used:
