Oh, and just in case you are looking for slightly different case - that the text in <UI> tags should not be translated - then you should have used a different approach and set up the file type so that the content of <UI> element is not translatable.
That way the entire content of the tag will be automatically carried over from source to target and you don't need to care about extra QA checks.

Hello,

Yes, QA Checker 3.0 in Trados Studio can indeed help you check if the words within specific symbols (like brackets) are the same between the source and target. Here's how you can do it:

Step 1: Open your project in Trados Studio.

Step 2: Navigate to the "Project Settings" and select "Verification" from the left-hand menu.

Step 3: Under the "Verification" settings, you will find "QA Checker 3.0". Click on it.

Step 4: In the QA Checker 3.0 settings, go to the "Regular Expressions" tab.

Step 5: Here, you can add a new rule. Click on "New" to create a new regular expression rule.

Step 6: In the "Source" field, enter the regular expression that matches the pattern of the words within brackets in your source language. For example, if you want to match any word within brackets, you can use the regular expression \[(.*?)\].

Step 7: In the "Target" field, enter the same regular expression. This will ensure that the QA Checker checks for the same pattern in the target language.

Step 8: Click "OK" to save the rule.

Now, when you run the QA Checker, it will check if the words within brackets are the same in the source and target languages. If there are any discrepancies, the QA Checker will flag them in the verification results.

Remember, regular expressions can be complex and powerful, so make sure to test your rules thoroughly to ensure they are working as expected.

I hope this helps! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
