Parallel Text Alignment and Translation Memory Creation

Parallel (or bilingual) text alignment and Translation Memory technology are widely used in various sectors of the language industry:

• Language Service Providers use Translation Memories to increase translation quality and speed. Using TMs in computer-assisted translation tools (CAT tools) allows them to avoid translating fragments that have already been translated earlier, thus increasing their productivity and maintaining consistent terminology.

• Language Service Customers use Translation Memories to cut the costs of translation services. When making an order, a customer can provide the LSP with a TM with previously translated corporate documentation, thus saving time, money, and maintaining company-specific style and terminology.
