Translated Unveils a New Way to Translate

ROME, May 17, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Translated, http://www.translated.net, a professional translation service provider since 1999, has launched a new platform based on T-Rank(TM) and MyMemory: two unique innovations that are the fruit of over 10 years of sector experience. T-Rank(TM) is an algorithm for classifying translators while MyMemory is a system for extracting terminology and pre-translated phrases from the Web.

T-Rank(TM) is the heart of Translated. Employing the same techniques used by search engines, it selects the best professional translator in real-time, analyzing the characteristics of a document to translate and comparing it against the profiles of hundreds of mother tongue translators. On the basis of the translator's real time availability, their areas of expertise and the results of 150,000 translations completed since 1999, T-Rank(TM) finds the best translator for any document.

MyMemory, http://mymemory.translated.net/, with over 400 million human contributions, is the largest collaborative translation memory in the world. It aims to organize all the information translated on the Web and gives translators the benefit of not having to retranslate phrases already translated by others. Thanks to this technology, customers can even benefit from a discount on phrases already translated and published, or on the Web. Translated is the only translation service in the world to apply such a discount.

Marco Trombetti, Translated's founder, points out that "to benefit from the Web's full potential language is the last barrier to overcome. In order for everyone to access information in their own language, we need to solve two problems: eliminate the middlemen that add no value and help translators by providing suggestions so that they only have to translate information that has not already been translated by others. We are working on both fronts."

For further information:
