Suggestion re. batch-adding synonyms in Memsource while translating Feb 3, 2018

Dear Michael,
You are right, you can add synonyms from the term base (on the web) or when importing terminology.
We will discuss your suggestion but it seems a little complicated, because for each term you may need to have different attributes (like case sensitive, etc.) or you may want to enter different comments, etc.


Ideally, the Source/Target term dialogue that pops up when clicking Alt+T could have a little switch (checkmark), called something like "Bulk adding terms" or "Bulk". When selected, the user could add synonyms by merely separating them with a specific delimiter,, like a semicolon. Thus: cat;pussy;pussy cat

This would really speed up adding multiple synonyms while translating!

Regards,

Michael
