KudoZ is a structured network used by translators to collaborate on terms. The most helpful answerers amass points that call attention to their areas of expertise. More than one million translations having been delivered via KudoZ. The archives can be browsed or searched, as can external terminology resources.

A KudoZ 'transaction' involves three steps:

(1) A person in need of translation assistance posts a term or phrase, providing context and the desired target language.

(2) Site members suggest a translation, optionally providing explanations and references.

(3) The asker reviews the suggestions and awards 1 to 4 points to the member who provided the translation deemed to be the most useful or the most accurate.
