What is a translation memory?
A translation memory is a database where translated sentences (segments) are saved. This means that every time a new text is translated, the translation memory will grow, and the linguist will have more available information for the next translation.
In the translation process, every time the linguist comes across a segment that is identical to or almost identical to a segment that has been translated before, the tool will automatically show the previous translation.
The user can edit the text, if necessary.
WebWordSystem gives the users the possibility of making their translations available to other users by publishing their sentences in Public area.
The individual segment in the translation memory contains the translation between two languages only.
WebWordSystem has only one translation memory, which is
sub-divided into several subject-specific fields, classified
according to the ISIC classification.
The translation memory contains the Private area and Public area of the individual
groups.
