   The most reliable approach is to create a small, approved terminology list before translating, then use it throughout the thesis and run a final consistency check.

   1. Make a term list with each source term, its approved translation, a short definition or context, and any variants to avoid. Include technical terms, acronyms, and key names.
   2. Use one shared glossary or termbase while translating every section—including the abstract, captions, and appendices. A CAT tool such as memoQ can highlight glossary terms and flag inconsistent use; a spreadsheet can work if you’re translating manually. (docs.memoq.com)
   3. Run a terminology QA check across the completed translation, then review the flagged cases yourself. A tool may miss inflected forms or flag legitimate context-dependent choices, so don’t accept every warning automatically.
   4. Keep bibliography entries separate from prose. Usually, preserve authors’ names, publication titles, journal names, and DOI details as they appear in the original; follow your university’s citation style for any exceptions.

   If you share your source and target languages—and whether you’re using Word, Google Docs, or a CAT tool—I can suggest a setup that fits your workflow.
