MT Edge and Language Pair Versions - April Update

Hi all,

Below the latest Language Pair update for April.

Each new Language Pair version usually includes an updated and improved training data corpus as well as potential fixes. For MT Edge customers, it is a good practice to ensure that the latest version of the language pairs is installed to benefit from the latest improvements. 

In Q3 2020, we started to release version 8.5 of our language pairs. The 8.5 version of the language pairs is including an improved way to apply dictionary entries during the translation.

There are currently 63 LPs on version 8.5 and 86 LPs on version 8.4. All languages pairs are adaptable.

Important information regarding MT Edge and LPs version compatibility:

  • 8.4 versions of the language pairs are supported by any MT Edge 8.4 release
  • 8.5 versions of the language pairs are supported only by MT Edge 8.4.5
  • MT Edge 8.5 supports all versions of the language pairs.

Additionally we want to mention that a new version of Machine Translation Edge is now available: SDL Machine Translation Edge 8.5.1 has been released

Below, you will find the updates for:
