Obtaining consistent translations?

How to obtain consistent translation for a specific term (with corresponding conjugations) and avoid different terms.

  • For certain languages, the default term checks in Studio will indeed not be good enough, because there are too many possible forms of the term.

    The reason why termCheck is so reliable is because it’s based on morphology. While classical statistical term checkers simply identify “similar” sequences of characters, checkTerm actually analyzes the text by stemming nouns and verbs, decomposing words with several components and checking the result against the termbase. This way the algorithm can correctly spot declined or conjugated words and individual parts of compositions. So, for instance, checkTerm will find “dial” as the regular form of “dialing” or all composites containing “dial”. Other check algorithms would fail to detect these because they can only check if a word used in a text uses similar characters to one in the termbase. See www.kaleidoscope.at/.../.
