From the days being an artistic talent, the translation art has evolved into a technology expanding on processes, instruments (Software) a science of it´s own. There are applications that create terminology databases, translation memories, applications that tag text for pre-translation. Translation has developed into a process activity involving linguists, technical staff Terminology validators and administrators.

It used to be said that translation was the fine art of re-creating the original draft into another language without losing the overall picture the source transmitts. It is true. The best translations are those where the translator is invisible and works in peace, where the target text just reads as if it had been originally created in that language.

Nobody wants to ponder about the meaning of a sentence when reading a novel written by a foreign novelist, often people keep trying to catch-up the words and how they are inter-linked transmitting the picture.

Since over 15-18 years, translation process goes hand-in-hand with usage of computer applications. It is very rare that any translator today does hand-finished translation and searches for terms in dictionaries. It is because the internet and the development in computer field have enabled online and local term bases access, which a translator catches up and reuses in the right sense, while maintaining the overall picture of the source document. This accelerates the transltion process.

Document producers are aware that accuracy is best kept by the use of terminology databases also generally known as TMs. There is a need for users and readers to recognise a particular kind of terminology.
