| Segment | Memsource splits text for translation into smaller segments. A segment can be a single sentence, phrase or heading of a text. This allows to store translations efficiently in the translation memory, and to find matches from the translation memory. |
| Term Base (TB) | The glossary. You can store English terms and their translations in the TB, which often appear in Cochrane content. This helps make your translations consistent. The terms that you have stored in the TB, will be highlighted to translators and editors when they work on a text that includes the terms. |
| Translation Memory (TM) | All translations that you complete on Memsource will be stored in a TM as bilingual sentences. The sentences that are stored in the TM, will be suggested to translators and editors when they work on a text that includes the same or similar sentences to those stored in the TM. This can make translation quicker and more consistent. |
