Classical machine translation translates texts directly from the source text into the target language. Modern AI translation also understands relationships, takes context into account and can adapt the writing style precisely.
This results in more natural and precise translations. In professional translation processes, AI is additionally combined with company knowledge such as terminology, Translation Memories, Style Guides and reference documents. This results in translations that are not only linguistically correct, but also technically accurate and consistent with the brand.
Benefits for companies:
- Better understanding of context: The AI takes the context of an entire document into account instead of considering individual sentences in isolation.
- Higher translation quality: Terminology, corporate language and style guidelines are incorporated directly into the translation.
- Less post-editing: More precise results reduce the effort required for quality assurance.
