MyMemory: next generation Translation Memory technology

What is MyMemory?

MyMemory is the world's largest Translation Memory. MyMemory is 100% free.

It has been created collecting TMs from the European Union, United Nations and aligning the best domain specific multilingual websites.

You can download memories for free in TMX format and use them with your CAT tool of choice. You can also contribute to make MyMemory even better with your memories, or editing entries. When no human translation is found for your sentences, MyMemory will help you with state-of-the-art Statistical Machine Translation technology.
