# Static Translations

Static translations allow you to define **fixed terms and rules** that override the automatic AI translation.

While AI provides high-quality translations, there are cases where certain words or phrases should **not be translated** or should always be translated in a **specific, predefined way**. Static translations give you full control over these exceptions.

This is especially useful for:

* **Brand names** or product names that must remain unchanged
* **Technical terms** that require consistent wording
* **Preferred translations** where AI results may vary or be inaccurate

When a static translation is defined, the system will always apply your rule instead of relying on the AI output.

This ensures:

* Consistent terminology across all languages
* Greater accuracy for critical terms
* Full control over how key content is translated

Static translations are applied automatically during the translation process and help maintain a professional and consistent multilingual experience.
