• Choose target language: Select the target language for auto translation. This setting is not available in the CAT module.
• Auto fill translation in TM: Automatically insert matching Translation Memory (TM) entries.
  • Override existing text with TM: Replace current texts in the target language column with TM entries.
• Auto translate with Machine Translation
  • Use Machine Translation service: Choose a service for Machine Translation (GPT-4o Text Translate, Google Text Translate, Amazon Text Translate). Depends on the service, there will be more sub-settings:
    • GPT-4o Text Translate: Detailed translation context (optional), Gridly glossary
    • Google Text Translate: Glossary file
    • Amazon Text Translate: Profanity masking, Formal language, Glossary file

When you are ready, click Start.

After Auto Translation completes, Gridly will report back the results, including:

• The number of inserted TM entries.
• The number of translations by Machine Translation.

If you are looking for a comprehensive analysis of Translation Memory statistics, Gridly offers an advanced Translation Analysis feature that provides in-depth breakdown of your TM data.
