<glossAlt>
The <glossAlt> element contains a variant term for the preferred
term. The variant should have the same meaning as the term in the
<glossterm> element; the variant is simply another way to refer to
the same term. There might be many ways to refer to a term;
each variant is placed in its own <glossAlt> element. The
<glossUsage> element can be used
within <glossAlt> to indicate when use of the alternate term is
appropriate.
note
A list of alternative terms is specific to the language, so the translation
of a <glossentry> topic might result in empty elements within a
<glossAlt> container.
