Eye-tracking is a growing field of research with several applications such as eye-movements in the recognition of natural environments, in human computer interaction, in speech and in reading. Eye-tracking has also been used as a means to understand the process of reading. This research focuses on the impact of single word properties, such as its duration, complexity (number of morphemes), familiarity of the word to the reader, its ambiguity, but also problems related to reading sequences of words in a context. Difficulties are usually measured by counting the duration of eye fixations on a particular word and the number of regressions to this word. One of the aims within the Eye-to-IT project is to figure out what help a translator might need when reading a text with the goal to translate it into another language. It has been shown
