In an embodiment, the disclosure provides a programmed computer system implemented via client-server Software as a Service (SaaS) techniques that allows for machine translation of digital content. When translating digital content, linguists must translate more than just the text on the page. Formatting, for example, is a commonly used and important aspect of online content that is typically managed with tags, such as <b> for bold and <i> for italics. When linguists work, they must ensure these tags are placed accurately as part of the translation. Projecting tags accurately depends on successfully accomplishing the challenging task of word alignment. Unfortunately, if word alignment is inaccurate, it makes placing formatting tags very difficult. In an embodiment, the present disclosure provides a method of not only translating text, but also efficiently and accurately projecting tags from input text in one language to output text in another language.
