A Muse is a resource – a statistical database – that offers hints for predictive typing.

A Muse guesses the next work or expression, computing from the source text and the translation that was already typed. In a way, the Muse is similar to a statistical machine translation module, but it can be more precise - because it does not have to guess an entire sentence, just the next few words.

Muses can be local resources only. You cannot share them on a memoQ server or on a memoQ cloud subscription. You need to export a muse in one copy of memoQ and import it in another.

A Muse is bilingual: In a project, you can use a Muse if it has the same language pair as your project.

How to get here

1.At the very top of the memoQ window - in the Quick Access toolbar quick-access-default -, click the Resource console (ring binder) icon-resconsole icon. The Resource console window opens, with the Translation memories pane.

2.Under Resource, click Muses. The Muses pane appears.
