Translation Memory

"Never translate the same text twice" – this is the main idea behind Translation Memory technology.

This technology is based on a comparison between the document to be translated with existing translations stored in the database. If the text segment to be translated matches with one in the database that has already been translated, the translation in the Translation Memory database is extracted and applied to the document to be translated. This makes translating documents of similar subject and structure and with blocks of repeated text extremely efficient.

Translation Memory technology provides fast translation at minimal cost.

Translation Memory is most effective when:

• Translating documents with repeating text segments
  Import-export materials, contracts, technical documentation, product descriptions, instructions, and similar documents).
• There is a need to increase efficiency of human translators.
  Translation Memory technology delivers significant time-savings and improvements in consistency when the same text segment appears multiple times in documents to be translated.
