What you will make
A practical Copilot guide to translate workplace text with a terminology list. Use the sample input and prompt, then check the result. Use a fictional Microsoft 365 workplace task as the practice setting. Identify the file or excerpt that supports the requested result.
Prepare the source and scope
Supply the original text, target language and a small glossary for product names and team terms. Preserve identifiers exactly. Open your available Microsoft Copilot experience and confirm whether it can read the intended work source.
Try this prompt
In Copilot, provide the prepared input, then send the following request. For real work, replace fictional details with approved facts.

Have a fluent reviewer compare intent, politeness, dates and the stated action against the original. Record each correction and its supporting source.
If the answer is wrong or incomplete
A natural translation can still alter a service commitment. Review obligation words and deadlines before distribution. If the active Copilot surface cannot access the file or app, paste an authorized excerpt into chat. Keep the same review criteria for the text-only workflow.
Practice and completion check
Repeat with one incomplete input. Check the answer against the review criteria, remove unsupported claims and save the prompt with its source version. This workflow has not been verified in a customer deployment.
