It is the panel that shows the original segments provided by the client. 

On the left side of the panel you find:

  • The segment number.
  • Image Removed View/edit all languages: This will allows you to edit target and source language. However, only minor changes can be made in the source text. If you need to make a big change, export your document in a MS Word format, edit it and import it back in Wordbee.

  • Image Removed100% match from from previous document version.
  • Image Removed110% (in context) match from pre-translation.
  • Image Removed100% match from pre-translation.

    • Image Removed<100% match from pre-translation.

     

  • Image RemovedMachine Translation (Google, Microsoft, Reverso...).

    • Image RemovedHuman translation.

     

  • Image RemovedCorrected automatically by the Check or Quality Assurance tools.
  • Status check button (red, green, or white).
  • At the bottom left corner you can see this buttonImage Removed. This functionality is useful if one or several segments are repeated. Indeed, instead of translating the segment as many times as it appears in the document, you translate it once, switch on Auto propagate, and Wordbee will automatically translate the other exact same segment(s) when it/they appear(s) in the document.

 

...

It is the panel in which the actual work is done. Some segments may already be translated in the case you used linguistic resources (translation memories…). Perfect pre-translation will appear in blue, exact pre-translation in green and fuzzy pre-translation in red.
When you start translating a segment, you will see a half circle appear at the upper right corner of the text box.

  • Databases: In this tab you can find a summary of the linguistic resources of the project.

...
