Language Asset Management (Language Asset Editor)

What is a language asset?

There are two types of language assets in this system: “TM (translation memory)” and “Glossary”. In both cases, as a general rule, the source and translation pair (TU = Translation Unit) is counted as one line. You can register (import) your language assets in the following three ways. For details, see User Help on Language Asset List screen. The registered language assets can be used in Quick PE and LAC (Custom MT Model Management) of this system.

(1) Import the language data (files) that you have locally.

(2) Extract language data from available texts on the Internet (or files you have locally) by leveraging AI, and import the aligned data.

(3) Import the stockdata provided in this system.

Information in Language Asset Editor screen

On this screen, you can edit the source/target text of a language asset. At the initial view, all the TUs (rows) in the language asset are displayed.

String search/replace area
- String search: Enter the string you want to search for and click [Search] button, then only those TUs in the language asset that contains the specified string in the source or target text will be displayed.
- Detect Duplicates: Select the check box to select [Source] (matching source), [Target] (matching target), and [Both] (matching both source and target). Clicking [Search] button without specifying a string displays only those TUs that match (duplicate) the source, target, or both in the language asset. If you specify a search string, the display will be narrowed down to only those TUs that contain the string in the source or target.
- String replacement: The entered string for search is automatically adopted as the string to be replaced (old string). If you enter the replacement string (new string) and click [Replace Text], the corresponding string in the TUs included in the search results will be replaced in bulk.
TU list: You can edit the source/target text separately. Unnecessary TUs can also be removed using [Delete] icon in Batch Processing menu by selecting them with the checkbox. You can also add a TU with [+] button at the right of each row.
Save Draft: A maximum of 60 rows can be displayed on one page. When moving to the previous or next page, use [Save Draft] button to save the edits on each page. If you don't save draft, your edits to that page will be discarded.
Finish: When you finish editing, click [Finish] button to complete and save your edits. When you have finished, all your edits will be reflected in the language asset.

Duplicate terms in the glossary

You can register duplicate terms (bilingual data) in the glossary, but it is recommended that a term pair (source-target text) be unique, whether referenced as a glossary or incorporated into a custom glossary model. However, there are cases where you want to change the translation of each term and the translation of a compound word, as shown below.

English
English	Japanese
asset	資産
management	管理
asset management	アセットマネジメント

If you create a custom glossary model with a glossary which includes such bilingual data, when you machine translate the source text (in this case, English) using the model, the term with the longer source length will be prioritized and the translation will be adopted. In the above example, if “asset management” appears in the source text, “アセットマネジメント” will be prioritized as the translation, so this source text will not be output as “資産管理”.
