Abstract
In a translation apparatus, a translation memory () stores (i) source language target language translation unit pairs and (ii) structural information for at least some source language translation units indicating a structural position within a document from which the source language translation unit was derived. A comparator () compares a new source language translation unit with source language translation units stored in the translation memory. Each comparison includes (i) a textual comparison and (ii) a structural comparison between an identified structural position within a source language document () from which the new source language translation unit was derived and the structural information for the source language translation unit stored in the translation memory.
