 For the past week or two, I've been noticing that some words from my
 localization glossary aren't showing up as suggestions in translation
 strings.

 In trying to find out why, in the Catalan localization, I've noticed that
 the glossary words not appearing as suggestions have a "-" in the
 "Translation" field (I imagine someone put a hyphen to avoid leaving the
 field empty).

 These entries were created in 2022, and until recently, the glossary
 suggestion appeared correctly, but for the past week or two, the
 suggestion hasn't been showing up when translating strings.

 If I create a new glossary entry and put "-" in the "Translation" field,
 it works correctly, even with other punctuation marks. The problem lies
 only with the old entries, and I'm not sure if it's just with "-" or also
 with other signs or symbols.

 I've tried removing the "-" from the "Translation" field by editing the
 entry, but the suggestion still doesn't appear. I've deleted the entry and
 recreated it, but it still doesn't show up. If I add another word to the
 original word, the suggestion is created.

 Could it be that another localization has "-" in the "Translation" field
 or another symbol and is experiencing the same issue? Does it make sense
 to avoid including only symbols? Only empty fields or text? Is it a
 punctuation problem or a recent change?
