Translation Memory (TM)
What is Translation Memory (TM)?
Translation Memory (TM) is a database of stored words, phrases and sentence pairs that have been previously translated. Translators use this database to translate and localize documents more quickly. TM also promotes improved consistency and accuracy across projects.
Wolfestone Group leverages the industry’s leading TM technology as part of our secure Translation Management System. Our global TM database contains millions of saved words and phrases across 220+ language pairs, ensuring that our clients benefit from quicker turnaround times and reduced costs without compromising on quality.

The Benefits of Translation Memory
At Wolfestone Group, we’ve spent the past two decades compiling one of the most robust TM databases in the industry. Here’s why TM is integral to our operations and your success.
Faster Project Completion
TM speeds up the translation process by automatically retrieving previously translated segments that match new content. This reduces the time spent on translating repetitive phrases and texts, allowing you to meet tight deadlines and translate more content in less time.
Cost Reduction
TM significantly cuts translation costs by minimizing the need for translators to retranslate phrases and sentences. The savings can be substantial, especially in large-scale projects or documents with high repetition, such as legal contracts or technical manuals
Consistency Across Languages
TM guarantees that every translation is consistent with those that came before, maintaining the integrity of specialized terms and branded content. It’s particularly important for industries where precision and consistency are critical, such as legal, medical, and technical fields.
Enhanced Security and Confidentiality
As part of Wolfestone Group’s Translation Management System, our TM is hosted on secure, cloud-based platforms.
We are ISO 27001 certified for information security, ensuring all translation memory and associated data remain confidential and protected against unauthorized access.
Translation Memory vs Machine Translation
Translation memory is not the same as machine translation, although it can be easy to confuse the two.
TM relies on human-generated translations only. Humans translated 100% of the words and phrases in a TM database at one point. TM segments are also just suggestions. They must be selected and verified by the human translator working on the project. This ensures faster and higher-quality outputs that remain completely human.
Machine translation, such as AI translation, is not a database of “memorized” human translations like TM. Instead, machine translation uses algorithms and artificial intelligence to automatically translate text without human input. This results in faster but less nuanced (and sometimes less accurate) translations.
