The eCoLoRe project conducted a survey of freelance and in-house translators in order to identify the typical translation workflow. It is therefore worth studying the materials produced by this project in order to gain a deeper understanding of what translating with TM tools involves.

Some of the most frequent questions asked by professionals thinking about starting to use TM tools are: 

Q: Will I need to spend additional time formatting the target file?

    A: Pseudotranslation can give you the answer.

        Q: How useful is my TM?

            A: Just pretranslate the source file to find out.

        Q: Can I see more sentences containing a particular term?

            A: Nothing the concordancing funtionality cannot do!
