 ## Translation Tips
 
-The translation doesn't have to be word-by-word precise. It should be technically correct and explain well.
+Please keep line breaks and paragraphs "as is": don't add newlines and don't remove existing ones. Makes it easy to merge future changes from the English version into the translation. 
 
 If you see that the English version can be improved – great, please send a PR to it.
 
+### Terms
+
+- Some specification terms are not to be translated, e.g. "Function Declaration" can be left "as is".
+- For other terms like `resolved promise`, `slash`, `regexp`, and so on look a good glossary, hopefully there's one for your language already.
+    - If there's no dictionary, look for translations in manuals, such as [MDN](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/).

-For links to MDN, that are only partially translated, also use the language-specific version.
+For links to MDN, a partially translated version is ok.
 
 If a linked article has no translated version, leave the link "as is".
 
+### Metadata
+
+Some files, usually tasks, have YAML metadata at the top, delimited by `---`:
+
+```md
+importance: 5
+
+---
+...
+```
+
+Please don't translate "importance" (and other top metadata).
+
+### Anchors
+
+Some headers have `[#anchor]` at the end, e.g.
+
+```md
+## Spread operator [#spread-operator]
+```
+
+Please don't translate or remove the `[#...]` part, it's for URL anchors.
