Thank you so much for asking this and being considerate of translators so early in the process! This should be done always :)

Hebrew:
* Stack: The same word as for "heap" is usually used. I asked another person and checked a dictionary. If it's important to denote that it's neat I could think of some ways.
* Boards: Easy to translate. Would the same that is used in Flow work?
* Set: There are several words depending on context, but not very challenging. As always, good explanation of context is important (it's called "qqq" in MedaiWiki jargon).

Russian:
* Stack and Board: Easy to translate.
* Set: as in Hebrew, several words could be used, but with good context documentation it will be easy to find something appropriate.

Hi Everyone,
 
Juliet here from the WMF Communications team. We're playing with some potential words for Product messaging and are wondering how the below options translate to other languages. 

We would love your thoughts on how translatable these three words are and what they mean to you in the languages you speak. 

  • Stacks - objects arranged in a pile (typically a neat one) on top of one another ("a stack of paper")
  • Boards -- not the wood kind, but like a notice board where information can be displayed (like Pinterest Boards if you use Pinterest) 
  • Sets -- a collection of things, ideas, etc. ("a set of keys")

Depending on how many responses we get, we may want to start a spreadsheet but for the time being please reply to this thread. 

Thank you in advance for your help and feedback!

Juliet
