In spite of Hod Ami (which, linguistically may be right) Microsoft glossary gives hagdara and because Microsoft products control market, people use terms coined by Microsoft.

: MS does not 'control' the Hebrew language. In any event, we need to keep hagdara for definition and related terms. I see kinun used a lot.

I agree that MS does not control the language and I also wrote that linguistically, Hod Ami may be right - unfortunately the "field" does not use the word כינון and we want to be understood by those who work in the field.
