Computer-Assisted Translation

Computer-Assisted Translation (CAT) refers to software tools that assist human translators in their work. These tools include features like translation memory, terminology management, and text editors, which help improve consistency, accuracy, and efficiency. Unlike fully automated translation, CAT relies on human expertise to produce high-quality results, with the software serving as a supportive aid. By storing previous translations and standard terms, CAT tools enable translators to work more quickly and maintain uniformity across large projects or multiple documents. Overall, CAT enhances productivity while ensuring the nuanced understanding only a human translator can provide.
