Simplifying Complex and Ambiguous Sentences
STPM's Sentence Review pane provides two key metrics - Sentence Complexity and
Sentence Ambiguity- designed to help authors write text that is well-suited for automatic
translation. Using these metrics as a guideline, authors can work to simplify sentences that
SYSTRAN identifies as complicated, and thus greatly improve the quality of their translations.
Sentences that display multiple times in the source files only display one time in the
Sentence Review pane.
With the Sentence Review pane you can also easily save your document file edits to your
Translation Memories (TMs).
