Translation Memory
Keep source and target segments that a person has approved, then bring those decisions back when the same or similar wording appears in later work.
Capabilities
What you can do here
Quality controls
The controls shown on this page are part of the working product, with plan access noted in the documentation.
Built from approvals
Approving a segment in either editor stores the source-target pair with its language pair, domain, and document context.
Exact-match reuse
Return an approved translation for identical source text, or auto-apply 100% matches to empty editor segments when that setting is enabled.
Fuzzy suggestions
Surface similar stored segments with a match score so the reviewer can reuse the useful part without treating it as final.
Concordance search
Search a word or phrase across the memory from inside either editor and see how it was translated in earlier segments.
TMX import and export
Bring existing memories from common CAT tools into the workspace and take approved data out again without lock-in.
Searchable, editable records
Filter stored segments, correct an entry that should not be reused, or delete decisions that no longer apply.
Several memories for teams
Business and Enterprise workspaces can maintain named memories, choose the active destination, assign existing entries, and separate client data structurally.
Coverage before translation
Run document analysis to see repetitions, exact matches, fuzzy bands, source words, and estimated workload before review begins.
Where it helps
Translation Memory
- Recurring work for the same client
- Product manuals and release documentation
- Contracts, policies, and standard clauses
- Support libraries and knowledge bases
- Software strings and repeated interface text
- Separate memories for clients or confidentiality boundaries
A practical workflow
How the work moves
Import a TMX or start clean
Bring an existing memory with you, or let the workspace build one from the translations you approve.
Review matches where they matter
Use exact and fuzzy results in the editors, search concordance when you need a particular phrase, and keep auto-apply under your control.
Maintain the memory
Search, edit, delete, or assign entries so old mistakes and unrelated client language do not quietly spread.
Measure and exchange
Use analysis to understand coverage for a new job and export TMX whenever the data needs to move to another workflow.
