# Get Glossary Items

## Description

* Omit **`language_id`** to load glossary items across languages (per `get_glossary_items_from_db_async`).
* Pass **`language_id`** to restrict to one language. Values **\< 0** are normalized to “not set” by **`adjust_language_id`**.
* Map locales to numeric IDs with [Get Languages](/vod/get-languages) (`GET /v2/languages/`) using each object’s **`language_id`** field.
* In each returned item, **`language_id`** may be **`null`**. That means the entry is treated as a **noun** (not scoped to a specific language).
