+Extracting localizable strings from GDScript files
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+The built-in `editor plugin <https://github.com/godotengine/godot/blob/master/modules/gdscript/editor/gdscript_translation_parser_plugin.h>`_
+recognizes a variety of patterns in source code to extract localizable strings
+from GDScript files, including but not limited to the following:
+
+- ``tr()``, ``tr_n()``, ``atr()``, and ``atr_n()`` calls;
+- assigning properties ``text``, ``placeholder_text``, and ``tooltip_text``;
+- ``add_tab()``, ``add_item()``, ``set_tab_title()``, and other calls;
+- ``FileDialog`` filters like ``"*.png ; PNG Images"``.
+
+.. note::
+
+    The argument or right operand must be a constant string, otherwise the plugin
+    will not be able to evaluate the expression and will ignore it.
+
+If the plugin extracts unnecessary strings, you can ignore them with the ``NO_TRANSLATE`` comment.
+You can also provide additional information for translators using the ``TRANSLATORS:`` comment.
+These comments must be placed either on the same line as the recognized pattern or precede it.
+
+::
+
+    $CharacterName.text = "???" # NO_TRANSLATE
+
+    # NO_TRANSLATE: Language name.
+    $TabContainer.set_tab_title(0, "Python")
+
+    item.text = "Tool" # TRANSLATORS: Up to 10 characters.
+
+    # TRANSLATORS: This is a reference to Lewis Carroll's poem "Jabberwocky",
+    # make sure to keep this as it is important to the plot.
