+description: The lingo macro no longer changes the current tiddler while rendering a language string
+impact-type: compatibility-break
+
+Before v5.5.0, the <<.var lingo>> macro transcluded the language string tiddler directly, which set the <<.var currentTiddler>> variable to the language tiddler for the duration of the transclusion.
+
+From v5.5.0 onwards, the language string is transcluded as a template, leaving <<.var currentTiddler>> unchanged. Most language strings are plain text and are unaffected. A language string that references <<.var currentTiddler>>, or uses a field reference such as `{{!!caption}}`, now resolves against the tiddler from which <<.var lingo>> was called rather than the language tiddler itself.

 description: Palette entries using WikiText other than the `<<colour ...>>` macro will no longer work
 impact-type: compatibility-break

 Before v5.5.0, TiddlyWiki palette entries were interpreted as WikiText. In practice this was almost always used for the familiar `<<colour ...>>` macro, but any valid WikiText could be used, including widgets and conditionals.
 
 From v5.5.0 onwards, palette entries are treated as filter expressions. Entries using the `<<colour ...>>` macro continue to work unchanged: they are automatically transformed into the equivalent filter expression `[tf.colour[...]]`. However, any other WikiText constructs are not supported and will not function correctly.
+
+In particular, the idiom of appending a hexadecimal alpha value to the macro, as in `<<colour primary>>AA`, no longer works. The equivalent filter expression is `[tf.colour[primary]colour-set-alpha[0.667]]`.
