Can we count word repetitions as opposed to segment repetitions?

Question

How can we find and count the words repeated in a document? And is there a way when we reach a word already translated above, to be automatically filled as it does with a full segment??

Counting word repetitions is not interesting per se, since what would you do about the words &lsquo;the&rsquo;, or &lsquo;a&rsquo; for instance, which will most probably repeat themselves many times in any English file&hellip; ? 
 If you want to focus on useful terms that appear more than x times in the same file, you can use the application projectTermExtract which allows you to extract term candidates for your project. The extracted terms are displayed in the form of a term cloud, which you can fine-tune on the fly. It&rsquo;s possible to create and load &lsquo;stopword lists&rsquo; containing words that you wish to ignore. 
 The final results can be added as a separate file to your project, and after translation they can be converted to a termbase, which can then be used to improve the term consistency in your project. 
 If you wish to insert terms into your segments automatically, you can have a look at the tool TermInjector .
