Abstract
Embodiments relate to automatically providing textual context for source strings in a source language that are to be translated by a human translator to target strings in a target language. The source strings are compared against a dictionary of reference strings in the source language. For each source string, one or more of the reference strings that are most relevant, similar, etc., are selected. When a human translator is to translate the source strings, the selected reference strings are presented; each source string has one or more similar/related strings displayable in association therewith. For a given source string, the human translator can use the associated reference strings as a form of context to help estimate the intended meaning of the given source string when translating the given source string to a target string in the target language.
