Translation Editing Environments
Elina Lagoudaki · 2009
This paper reports on feedback received from translation professionals on the translation editing environments they use, within or in conjunction with their Translation Memory system. Four options of environments emerge and their respective advantages and disadvan-tages are discussed. It is shown how these en-vironments impact on the translation process that their users follow and how the process could be improved. A number of needs con-cerning the functionality of translation editors, as well as the user interface, are presented with reference to particular use contexts. 1
