1. A method of supporting translation of a source text in a source language, the method comprising: receiving, from a client device, a source text portion in the source language to be translated into a target language; splitting the source text portion into minimal independent translation segments, each minimal independent translation segment being translatable independent of the other minimal independent translation segments; for each minimal independent translation segment of the source text portion, identifying a corresponding knowledge statement comprising information that relates words or combinations of words in the minimal independent translation segment, that are in the source language, to corresponding words or combinations of words in the target language; accessing a stored record that identifies one or more knowledge statements for another source text portion, other than the received source text portion, that have been previously transmitted to the client device; using a computer having a processor to assemble the identified knowledge statements for the minimal independent translation segments of the source text portion together to form a subset of translation knowledge specific to the source text portion, wherein the subset of translation knowledge is formed based on the stored record; and remotely transmitting, from the computer, the subset of translation knowledge to the client device to support a translation on the client device, remote from the computer, of the source text portion into the target language as a function of the subset.
