Terminology recognition

Terminology recognition in the segment table is state of the art in modern translation environments — and translate5 is no exception.

It is based on the open-source licensed openTMStermTagger by Prof. Dr Klemens Waldhör and finds equivalents of the terminology imported via .tbx file using stemming based on the Apache Lucene framework and taking into account uppercase and lowercase spelling.

It can be configured, which of the two methods should be used.

For the correct import of terminology via .tbx file, please consult the TBX file structure page.

Terminology recognition in the editor

If a translation memory or terminology database has been added to the task, translate5 will indicate whether a segment contains a word that is included in one of these language resources. After saving a segment, it is again checked against the terminology database. The recognized terminology matches in the active segment are listed in the “terminology” “Terminology” area of the right-hand editor panel.

translate5 not only recognizes and marks terminology, but also uses a colour system in the segment table to immediately indicate whether the terminology is applied correctly or not:

Term exists in the terminology database and is used correctly in the target segment.

Image Removed Image Added

Term for the target language exists in the terminology database but is not used in the target segment.

Image Added Image Removed

Source language term exists in the terminology database, but without a target language equivalent.

An incorrect term was used that has the status prohibited forbidden or obsolete in the terminology database.


Terminology recognition in the editor panel

If a term from the terminology database is recognized in the open segment, the entire entry is displayed in the “Terminology” section of the right-hand editor panel. The colour behind after the term corresponds to the one assigned to the TermCollection. Terms found in the current segment are printed in bold.

Classification of the terms

Each term is assigned a classification, which can be adjusted/assigned in the TermPortal:

Show status

If you move hover the cursor over the symbol on the left of the term, a tooltip appears with the term’s status.

Open terminology entry in TermPortal

If your user has the necessary permissions, the terms displayed in the terminology recognition come with a link. Clicking on the link opens the entry in the TermPortal.


Blocking of segments due to missing target language terms

Image Modified Image Modified

With the help of the two plug-ins “LockSegmentsBasedOnConfing” and “NoMissingTargetTerminology“, all segments that do not contain terms underlined in red can be locked automatically. Thus, all segments that do not contain terminology problems are automatically locked. This functionality is very helpful, for example, when translate5 is used to correct proofread terminology in a translation memory.



Spelling, grammar and style checker
Anchor
spellcheck
spellcheck

The LanguageTool writing assistant built into translate5 by default provides spelling, grammar and style checking. For pure spell checking, LanguageTool builds on Hunspell, which supports avariety of languages. LanguageTool also supports a range of languages, the list of which is being continuously expanded.

Checking is carried out in the open segment whenever there is no typing. It can also be triggered manually with the use of the F7 key. For East Asian languages, where you have to combine several keys in order to produce characters, the spell check must always be triggered manually with the F7 key.

If the target segments are already populated with text during import, or if it is pre-translated, spell checking can already take place during the import. This behaviour can be controlled via a system setting that can also be adjusted by the project manager at client and import level. It is active by default.

Spell checking in the editor

The errors found during spell checking are marked with different colours depending on the type of error:

For a comprehensive overview of the error categories that can be checked by LanguageTool, please visit the Qualitätssicherung#languagetool Quality assurance page.

Apply correction suggestion

Right-click on the word to display correction suggestions. If you click on one of the suggested corrections, the error in the active segment is immediately replaced with the suggestion.

Since LanguageTool only supports those languages by default, for which it offers grammar and style checking, Activate additional languages for spell checking Activate additional languages for spell checking Activate additional languages for spell checking languages not on that list need to be activated separately.

There is a publicly available version of LanguageTool. However, the spell checker runs faster when a LanguageTool for SpellCheck-Plugin is used.
