Hello Rita,

It seems like you're dealing with a segmentation issue in Trados Studio 2022 SR2. The software is likely treating the brackets as separate segments due to the current segmentation rules.

Here's a step-by-step guide on how you can modify the segmentation rules:

Step 1: Open Trados Studio and go to the "File" menu.

Step 2: Click on "Options" and then select "Language Pairs".

Step 3: Choose "All Language Pairs" or the specific language pair you're working with.

Step 4: Click on "Common" and then "Segmentation Rules".

Step 5: In the "Before break" and "After break" fields, you can modify the rules to avoid segmentation between brackets. You might need to use regular expressions to achieve this. For example, you could add a rule that ignores a period (.) if it's followed by a closing bracket ()), which might solve your issue.

Please note that modifying segmentation rules can affect the entire project, so it's recommended to test these changes on a small portion of your text first to ensure they produce the desired results.

Hello,

I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble finding the "Segmentation Rules" option in Trados Studio 2022 SR2. Here's an alternative way to access it:

Step 1: Open your Translation Memory (TM) in Trados Studio's "Translation Memories" view.

Step 2: Right-click on the TM and select "Settings".

Step 3: Go to "Language Resources", select "Segmentation Rules" and click on "Edit".

Step 4: Select the "Full stop" rule and click on "Edit".

Step 5: Click on the "Add" button to add an exception.

Step 6: Set a name for your exception and click on the "Advanced View" button.

Step 7: Leave the "Before break" dialogue box as it is and at the "After break" dialogue box please add this string: \xa0

Step 8: Press "OK" when closing the dialogue boxes.

Please note that these steps are for editing the segmentation rules within a specific Translation Memory. If you want to change the rules for all your projects, you'll need to adjust the settings in the "Project Settings" menu instead of the "Translation Memories" view.
