Translator's Workbench

Recognizing Your Time is Important


Translator's Workbench compiles a linguistic database (the translation memory or "TM") that captures your translations as you work. When you encounter a sentence that is similar or identical to a sentence you have already translated with SDL TRADOS or have imported from previous translations, Translator's Workbench searches the translation memory for a stored translation, giving you the option to edit, accept or reject it. As a result, the same sentence never needs to be translated again and you can re-use what you have translated as often as you want. The more you build up your translation memory, the faster you can translate subsequent projects and thus, the more time you will have for the more creative aspects of your work.

What's more, Translator's Workbench also offers a new Autoconcordance feature to allow you to automatically search for text fragments when no sentence match is found.
