Identify Terms That Should Stay in English
Not everything needs to be translated. Take stock of any words or phrases specific to your brand, menu, or operations, and plan to keep those in English.
Common examples include:
Your business name
Signature dish names or menu item names
Internal terms like "taco bible" or "86'd"
Brand slogans or taglines
Compliance or regulatory language with required phrasing
Add Terms to Excluded Translations
Once you've identified terms that should stay in English, add them to Excluded Translations. Opus never translates these terms anywhere, whatever language a team member uses.
Go to Settings > Languages.
Find the Excluded Translations section.
Enter each word or phrase on its own line.
Click Save Exclusions.
💡 Match the case: Excluded terms are case-sensitive, so enter each one exactly as it appears in your content.
Why Keeping Some Terms in English Matters
Brand identity and recognition: Slogans, taglines, and branded phrases are often chosen for their specific feel and meaning. Keeping them in English protects your brand's voice in every market.
Menu and product accuracy: Product names and proprietary terms often don't have direct translations. Keeping them in English prevents confusion and keeps your menus accurate.
Compliance and regulatory language: Some industries require specific English terminology. Translating these terms can reduce precision or create compliance issues.
Tone and style: Translations may not capture the same nuance as the original phrasing. Keeping key terms in English preserves the tone and intent of your content.
