<a href="https://glosario.carpentries.org/">Glosario</a> is a multilingual glossary
251+
for computing and data science terms. The glossary helps
252+
learners attend workshops and use our lessons to make sense of computational and programming jargon written in English by offering it
253+
in their native language. Translating data science terms also provides a teaching tool for Carpentries Instructors to reduce barriers
254+
for their learners.
