Hello,

I am new to OmegaT and I would like to know how to calculate these:


WORD COUNT: Repetitions      
100 - 95%      
94-75%      
74% - No match      


The agency didn't send a TM with the doc to translate.
I opened the statistics at the end of the translation but it says "0" for everything. I know some words were repeated.

Can you help me?

Thank you.

I don't know what you mean by "I opened statistics," but if you're in the document in OmegaT and you've saved the file and "created document" (ctrl S cntrl D), then click Tools > Match Statistics and you will surely find them.

Repeated "words" are actually repeated segments May 7, 2015

The "repetitions" count shows the number of words in repeating segments. Does your text have repeating words inside segments that are otherwise different from each other, or does your text have multiple segments that are identical to each other?
