This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
You are trying to switch from using ACF and Crowdin for managing translations to using Elementor and automatic translation, and you want to create a glossary from existing translations to use with the automatic translation systems. However, you could not find any documentation or forum posts on how to export existing translations into a glossary CSV file.
Solution:
Unfortunately, directly exporting existing translations into a glossary CSV file is not possible. However, if you share translation memory between websites and the same segments repeat, the automatic translation will use translations from the memory and apply them without additional charges. We recommend checking the following documentation for more details:

Hello,

I am afraid that can not be possible, but if you share translation memory between websites and the same segments repeat, automatic translation will use translation from memory and apply them without charging anything.
