Create a Memory

Create a new Memory. A Memory is a container that collects source/target sentences for a specific language pair (e.g., English>French). The data in the Memory is used to train the MT system, populate the TM, and update the lexicon. Memories are private to your account - the data is not shared across users - unless you explicitly share a Memory with your team (via web app only).
