Notes From OSI, WordForge Brainstorm
- Managers
- Translation Memory
- Terminology
- What's the difference between terminology and translation memory
- how it's managed?
- how it's presented to the users?
- how it's expected to be used?
- How does the approver, etc. interacter with these managers?
- Does a phrase have to passed through the approver first before it can place into memory/terminology?
- Is this process formalized?
- Are the TM and TMM just off on their own?
- Do you show both trans. mem. and terminology?
- Does terminology show a STRONG suggestion rather than explicitly blocking an "incorrect" word?
- Output
