Hello Olivier,
Wikipedia explains the concept: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_text
My guess is that possibly "body" refers to the largest mass or "bulk" of
the text, or maybe the metaphor is "head and body" (headings being the
"head").
Other languages may use different metaphors, though. In some languages
the metaphor is "bread". For appropriate translation, I'd suggest
consulting a dictionary.
Best regards,
Tuomas

Hi L10n team
I have a question on English linguistics: the paragraph style "body
text" is "text of the body" right? as opposed to "body of the text".
I'm asking because I see translated as "body of the text" all over the
internet and in several languages, including in doc from other
softwares such as Adobe, MS for pt-BR.
Thanks in advance,
