Forgot to attach the form. My addition doesn't show up very well in the webarchive file, so go with my message in the email.

<span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: 13pt;">I would like to add one term to your list of rangeland synonyms, one that I've encountered in Central Asia: pastureland, one word. In Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan, and possibly other former soviet republics of Central Asia, the term rangeland is hardly ever used. Instead, they refer to "pastures" on a regular, routine basis, and "pastureland" in technical or official documents.</span>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;">Dear Friends of the IYRP,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;">There has been interest among the IYRP community in gaining a broader understanding of the terms used for "rangelands" and "pastoralists" around the world. These are words that are synonyms and metonyms used to describe these terms but that are more reflective of local culture. To this end, the IYRP Communications Team has prepared a survey to first identify these terms in English with the expectation that there will be additional surveys to gain this same information for the other official UN languages. Our plan is to create ‘word clouds’ that can be used for a variety of purposes by everyone. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;">This is a very brief survey and many terms have already been listed. Please review the list and let us know what other terms should be included. There is also a question about the search engines you use as it will be helpful to know local and regional preferences. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;"><strong>Your response by 15 March, 2021 would be most appreciated</strong>. Please also distribute to your Regional IYRP Support Group members and others as may be appropriate.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;">Here is the link to the survey - <a href="https://uarizona.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6VxL4xDzJMOw44d">https://uarizona.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6VxL4xDzJMOw44d</a></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;">Thank you for your assistance.</p>
