What is translation memory (TM) technology?
Translation memory technology does not translate material, but assists the human translator to produce a better (that is, faster and more consistent) translation. TM, simply put, keeps track of and allows the reuse of information that is repetitive, both within a document and across a series of documents. This saves both on costs and on time spent, as repeat texts do not need to be translated over and over again. As your TM database grows over time, your savings increase with every project. Plus, TM technology ensures accurate and consistent translations throughout large projects and over time.
