First of all I decided to learn about the things I missed during the previous class. Those things are: alignment, machine translation, and translation memory. Plus inserting spellchecker.

To begin with I started a new project in OmegaT.

Then I inserted a file with the text that is to be translated.

I added the file with the spellchecker.

I wanted to change the language in OmegaT to English to better relate to the guides online.

I didn't want to reinstall with the new language, but I wanted to try to change it in the code.

The first thing I did was search on my computer program files and selected OmegaT.

The biggest advantage of OmegaT is that it is a free tool. Nevertheless, it comes with a few disadvantages. Here's some of them that I noticed:

the user interface feels dated

Setting up projects and managing resources (like TMs and glossaries) can be confusing at first, as OmegaT doesn’t guide the user as much as other tools do (such as MemoQ).

However, if a user is willing to invest sufficient time with this tool, it can be very useful. Although I wouldn't recommend it for beginners.
