Although Autshumato ITE is specifically developed for the eleven official South African languages, OmegaT is language independent and can be used for translation between any two languages.

Terminology Management System

Translators often use terminology lists to help them translate consistently. The effective management of these different terminology lists is very important to ensure consistency and to prevent the duplication of term entries. A terminology management system (TMS) is software that facilitates the management and development of searchable terminology databases that contain terminology in different languages. The aim of the Autshumato Terminology Management System (TMS) is to serve as a central terminology repository for the eleven languages of South Africa.
