Here's how much work you can count on: * There are 326 terms -- about 30 just redirect to the "standard" term. * I sometimes add more -- sometimes, the folks who are working on the documentation ask me to add terms. I decide whether the term merits inclusion (or not) ... or if it should just be a redirect to an existing term. * There is a table that lists note duration names from longa (quadruple whole note and its rest counterpart) to two-hundred-fifty-sixth note (and rest) * There is another table of pitch names from c to b (h, if you're German or Scandinavian) with all sharp and flat variants (including enharmonics, like e-sharp = f and f-flat = e) * If possible, provide a bibliographical reference to a reputable Hungarian music reference. For comparison, please see the list of current references at the end of the Glossary, in the section titled "Literature Used": http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/music-glossary/Pitch-names# Literature-used * Translators only translate terms -- entries are not currently provided in other languages. > The question is: > Where and in what format should I send the Hungarian terms?

No: it is made with texinfo and texi2html (customized). > Is the source file available? Yes -- but as the designated Glossary maintainer, I'm responsible for preparing and submitting *all* glossary updates.
