▁Trans lation ▁management ▁system ▁( T MS ), ▁which ▁is ▁another ▁type ▁of ▁software ▁focused ▁on ▁man aging ▁process ▁of ▁translation ). ▁ ▁Trans lation ▁mem ories ▁are ▁typically ▁used ▁in ▁conj unction ▁with ▁a ▁dedicated ▁computer ▁assist ed ▁translation ▁( CAT ) ▁tool , ▁word ▁processing ▁program , ▁termin ology ▁management ▁systems , ▁mult iling ual ▁dictionary , ▁or ▁even ▁raw ▁machine ▁translation ▁output . ▁ ▁Research ▁indicates ▁that ▁many ▁companies ▁producing ▁mult iling ual ▁documentation ▁are ▁using ▁translation ▁memory ▁systems . ▁In ▁a ▁survey ▁of ▁language ▁profession als ▁in ▁ 2 0 0 6 , ▁ 8 2 . 5 % ▁out ▁of ▁ 8 7 4 ▁rep lies ▁confirmed ▁the ▁use ▁of ▁a ▁T M . ▁Us age ▁of ▁T M ▁correl ated ▁with ▁text ▁type ▁character ised ▁by ▁technical ▁terms ▁and ▁simple ▁sentence ▁structure ▁( techn ical , ▁to ▁a ▁less er ▁degree ▁market ing ▁and ▁financial ), ▁computing ▁skills , ▁and ▁repet it iveness ▁of ▁content . ▁ ▁Using ▁translation ▁mem ories ▁ ▁The ▁program ▁breaks ▁the ▁source ▁text ▁( the ▁text ▁to ▁be ▁translated ) ▁into ▁segments , ▁looks ▁for ▁matches ▁between ▁segments ▁and ▁the ▁source ▁half ▁of ▁previously ▁translated ▁source - target ▁pairs ▁stored ▁in ▁a ▁translation ▁memory , ▁and ▁presents ▁such ▁matching ▁pairs ▁as ▁translation ▁candidates . ▁The ▁transl ator ▁can ▁accept ▁a ▁candidate , ▁replace ▁it ▁with ▁a ▁fresh ▁translation , ▁or ▁modify ▁it ▁to ▁match ▁the ▁source . ▁In ▁the ▁last ▁two ▁cases , ▁the ▁new ▁or ▁modified ▁translation ▁goes ▁into ▁the ▁database
