Concordance search

Hi,

I have a question about the concordance search in SDL Studio 2015. I find that it doesn´t always find results that I know are in the TM. For example, I had recently translated a word and when I wanted to look it up by doing a concordance search, studio couldn´t find it. I have updated the memory and all the settings should be fine (fuzzy 70, minimum 30). What is the reason for this?

Best regards,
Linn

  • Just to wrap this up.  The problem was that the words in the TM were actually these:

    Paksoita
    Shanghaipaksoita
    Paksoipaistosta

    This means you definitely need to make sure that the concordance value is less than 100%... probably quite a bit lower.  If I use 70% I find this with concordance:

    The others will have too low a fuzzy value to be found.  So options to find these would be:

    1. Use Ctrl+F and just search the source which will find the previous examples in the text you have open no matter how long the words are, and

    2. Make more use of a Termbase and add these terms as you work

    Regards
