Source language
Specification of the source/outgoing language.
Export
When exporting, the source language corresponds to the developer language. It is named accordingly in the export file (see below).
Import
When importing, the source language contains the source texts to be translated and the target language contains the translated texts. The source language is used with the options Only import texts that are identical for the source language in the project and in the import file and Only import texts with correct text parameters to check the correctness of the translations. However, this only works if the source language matches the developer language.
Where the source language can be found in the export/import file depends on the export settings:
