The TXT format is a simple text file format supported by Lingohub. It is intended for plain text content without any specific markup or structure.
It is the best option to translate any arbitrary text that does not follow any key-value structure, as commonly used in software application translation.

Format

  • The file extension is .txt
  • The content is divided into paragraphs, separated by one or more empty lines
  • Each paragraph will appear as a separate translatable segment
  • Empty lines between paragraphs are preserved and tracked
  • Paragraphs that span multiple lines are kept together as a single segment
  • Line breaks within a paragraph are preserved in the segment's content
  • The TXT format supports UTF-8 encoding by default, ensuring proper handling of international characters
