  <title>Den Übersetzungsspeicher erstellen</title>

  <p>With <app>Gtranslator</app> you can start with a blank translation memory (TM), and each time you translate a string it will be added as a new entry in the TM database.</p>
  
  <p>You can also build the TM by importing strings from an already existing PO file (for example one that has been created for the previous version of the program or web application that you are working on). That way, if there are similar strings in the PO file that you are working on, <app>Gtranslator</app> will display them in the TM panel and you can choose to use them as it is, or change/adapt them for the string you are translating.</p>
 
<note style="warning">
  <p>To be able to view the <gui>Translation Memory</gui> panel, you need to activate the <em style="strong">Translation Memory plugin</em>: click the <gui>Gtranslator</gui> app menu in the top bar, select <guiseq><gui>Preferences</gui><gui>Plugins</gui></guiseq> tab, and activate the TM plugin check box.</p>
