Spelling: spelling problem;
-
Unedited TM (NT/MT) fuzzy match: partial match problem with the translation memory (between the non-translatable element and the translation engine);
-
Tags and formatting: the number of tags in the target language does not match the number of tags in the source language, or the text is missing between two tags in the target language.
