    Term base in SDL MultiTerm XML format

    Below you can see the SDL MultiTerm format of term bases exported through WS API. The following settings are used:

    • File format: XML
    • Encoding: UTF-16
    • Images are not exported through WS API
    • Both QTerm and memoQ term bases can be exported to MultiTerm XML
    • QTerm custom fields are not exported. To export these metadata fields, use the TBX export format.
    Warning

    The format of MultiTerm XML files might have different format if they have been exported from QTerm.

    Structure

    The output of the TBX export is an XML file the content of XDL and XDT files are returned as string parameters.

    XDL

    XDL file is a layout definition file for SDL MultiTerm. You can find a sample here. As memoQ term bases are of fixed structure (and custom fields from QTerm term bases are not exported), XDL files always have the same format, and only language information can change according to the languages of the term base. Below you can see the changing part of the XDT. Current languages appear in <LocalizationXML> element listed between the two empty label (<label field=""/>). The value of the field will be the long name, the label's value will be the English display name of the language.

    <LocalizationXML>
       <label field="Created by">Created by</label>
       <label field="Created on">Created at</label>
       <label field="Modified by">Modified by</label>
       <label field="Modified on">Modified at</label>
       <label field="Entry class">Entry class</label>
       <label field="Entry number">Entry number</label>
       <label field="Entry level">Entry level</label>
       <label field=""/>
       <label field="English (United States)">English (United States)</label>
       <label field="German (Germany)">German (Germany)</label>
       <label field="Hungarian">Hungarian</label>
       <label field="Term">Term</label>
       <label field=""/>
       <label field="ID">Entry ID</label>
       <label field="Note">Note</label>
       <label field="Project">Project</label>
       <label field="Client">Client</label>
       <label field="Domain">Domain</label>
       <label field="Subject">Subject</label>
       <label field="Definition">Term definition</label>
       <label field="Usage example">Example of use</label>
       <label field="Forbidden term">Forbidden term</label>
       <label field="Part of speech">Part of speech</label>
       <label field="Number (grammar)">Number (grammar)</label>
       <label field="Gender (grammar)">Gender (grammar)</label>
       <label field="Image">Image</label>
    </LocalizationXML>
    
    Note

    QTerm term bases do not have a built-in Note field (represented by the <label field="Note"> element, so that will not be present in the exported XML file.

    XDT

    XDT is a definition file for SDL MultiTerm that describes the scheme of the term base. You can find a sample here. As memoQ term bases are of fixed structure (and custom fields from QTerm term bases are not exported), XDT files always have the same format, and only language information can change according to the languages of the term base. Below you can see the changing part of the XDT part. Current languages appear in the <Languages> element, where <ItemLocale> contains the two-letter language code, and <ItemText> the long name of the language.

    <Languages>
     <ItemLocale>EN</ItemLocale>
     <ItemText>English</ItemText>
     <ItemLocale>HU</ItemLocale>
     <ItemText>Hungarian</ItemText>
    </Languages>
    

    Language-level information in the XML file is captured within the <languageGr> element, which has <language> child nodes. The XDT defines the possible values of the lang and the type attributes of the <language> elements. The type attribute has the type "languages" and contains the long name of languages; the lang attribute refers to the target locale and it has the type "locales", and contains the two-letter language codes. Please see the example below.

    <ElementType ID="8" name="languageGrp" content="eltOnly" order="many">
      <description/>
      <Occurences>
        <Level minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="*"/>
      </Occurences>
      <ElementType ID="9" name="language" content="empty" order="many">
        <description/>
        <Occurences>
          <Level minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"/>
        </Occurences>
        <AttributeType name="type" type="languages" values="English|Hungarian">
          <description/>
          <Occurences>
            <Level minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"/>
            <Level minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="*"/>
          </Occurences>
        </AttributeType>
        <AttributeType name="lang" type="locales" values="EN-US|HU">
          <description/>
          <Occurences>
            <Level minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"/>
            <Level minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="*"/>
          </Occurences>
        </AttributeType>
      </ElementType>
    

    XML

    The content of the term base is exported to the XML file.

    In the following example, you can see the representation of an entry from a QTerm term base.

    <conceptGrp>
      <concept>0</concept>
      <system type="entryClass">0</system>
      <transacGrp>
        <transac type="origination">admin</transac>
        <date>2016-04-03T12:31:31</date>
      </transacGrp>

    Note

    The value of the <concept> element stands for the index of the given entry, between 0 and the count of the entries - 1. <conceptGrp> has a child element called <system>. Its value is always 0.

    Entry level fields

    The following entry level fields are present in a MultiTerm XML both when exporting memoQ or QTerm term bases. Their order is not bound. A field is exported if it has a value. The content of an entry is located within <conceptGrp>.

    Properties specified in the <descrip> elements within <descripGrp> define the ID, the metadata and the note of a term base entry:

    <descripGrp>
      <descrip type="Client">RemoteCooking</descrip>
    </descripGrp>
    
    Entry level property Value of the type attribute Value type of the <descript> element Description

    QTerm term bases do not have a built-in Note field, and a custom field with the same name will not be exported to MultiTerm XML by the WS API export.

    Properties specified in the <transac> elements within <transacGrp> define the creation and modification dates and the creator/modifier of a term bas entry:

    <transacGrp>
      <transac type="origination">admin</transac>
      <date>2016-04-03T12:31:31</date>
    </transacGrp>

    Language level fields

    The following language level fields are present in a MultiTerm XML both when exporting standard memoQ or QTerm term bases. Their order is not bound. A field is exported if it has a value. The language level content can be found within the <languageGrp> element. The name of the language and its two-letter language code is described by the attributes of the <language> element: <language type="English (United States)" lang="EN-US"/>

    <languageGrp>
      <language type="English (United States)" lang="EN-US"/>
      <descripGrp>
        <descrip type="Definition">a list of the dishes that may be ordered (as in a restaurant) or that are to be served (as at a banquet)</descrip>
      </descripGrp>
      <termGrp>
     ...
    </languageGrp>
    

    memoQ term bases contain only the definition term at the language level, this propertie is represented as a <descripGrp> element.

    <descripGrp>
      <descrip type="Definition">a list of the dishes that may be ordered (as in a restaurant) or that are to be served (as at a banquet).</descrip>
    </descripGrp>

    </termGrp>
    

    The text of the term can be found as the value of <term> element.

    Properties specified as <descrip> elements (within <descripGrp>) describe usage, grammatical information, case sensitivity and matching condition of the term:

    <descripGrp>
      <descrip type="Part of speech">N</descrip>
    </descripGrp>
    
    Term level property Value of the type attribute Value type of the <descrip> element Description
