Know Your Translation Memory: Fuzzy Match

A “Fuzzy Match” isn’t a fire hazard; it’s an indication of how well SDL TradosTM recognizes a text segment in a document. Translation Memory (TM) programs look for segments in memory… that have enough content in common with the current document segment for the translation memory to be of use for translation. The match is expressed as a percentage. A complete match is called, not surprisingly, a 100% Match.
