Add new language pair (to Language Terminal)

When you create a project that is connected to Language Terminal, you can add new language pairs to your Language Terminal profile.

You must do this because the language pair of the project must also exist in your Language Terminal profile.

Bilingual projects only: You can't connect a project to Language Terminal if it has two or more target languages.

Local projects only: For the time being, you can't connect online projects to Language Terminal.
