But absolutely useless? I am not so sure. Even a translator of fiction can be helped with the term database of a CAT tool - re. the Harry Potter series, for instance, where there are a lot of names both of persons and placed that are being translated. A term list will, therefore, be helpful for the translator. But if the help is sufficient to warrant the investment in a CAT tool is a totall different type of fish.


Hi Roy, I agree, of course. But it depends if you are translating a huge saga or short stories


That's also what I meant to imply in my answer. In some instances it will be helpful to be consistent in the saga, in other instances it won't help you much at all. Though there is something called predictive writing in CAT tools these days, which means you can save some key strokes because it tries to guess what you want to write.

That some users find it unstable, does not necessarily mean that every user does experience the same.

This is my experience and of many others. And no solution or response from SDL.
