Although computers are becoming more powerful, they cannot compete with humans in the translation process. However, computers and their software are an integral part of translators&#8217; daily work. The translation time required for CAT translation has decreased. In addition, modern tools ensure consistent use of terminology, help save costs and provide other benefits. The use of translation tools is becoming more and more demanding and in some industries it is even a mandatory requirement, as their effectiveness is appreciated by translators and our clients.<\/p><p>Translation tools are specifically designed for translators who do not perform computerized or automated translation, but the software helps a professional in the translation process. With these tools, you can store all previously translated texts, ensuring that no two identical sentences are ever translated more than once.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3493e53 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3493e53\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">THREE ADVANTAGES OF CAT TOOLS:\u200b\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0bd5d24 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0bd5d24\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul><li><strong>Translation memory:<\/strong>\u00a0when sentences are repeated in the text (verbatim or with small differences), the SAT program can recognize them and offer the translator the already existing translation option.
