CAT tools do not alter original document, so irreversibly mess up the document impossible. When the translation is finished, the program creates a document identical to the original, retaining structure and formatting, but replacing the original text with your translation. Over the years you can accumulate such a wast database that the new document will be half-ready before you even start. The more texts on related subjects you translate, the more translations accumulated in the database, and more suggestions you will see. In fiction translation assistance will not be so obvious, but it can still help with memorizing names and places. CATs are especially good when translating manuals, legal documents, program interfaces anywhere similar wording widely occurs. And the program can handle identical segments automatically. If the translator will meet a similar segment, the program will show a hint or a possible translation. Human translates segments one by one, and the translation is stored in a special database - translation memory ( TM). CAT tools divide source text into segments - lines, sentences or paragraphs. CAT is a principle of operation when the computer only helps by automating routine processes. Google Translate - machine translation, the computer translates for you.
