Setting Dictionary Priority
With SDM you can set the priority for use of a Dictionary.
Priority Description
1 Priority 1 entries have precedence over any other dictionary coding rule. Use this
priority carefully, since it can degrade the main translation by hiding grammatical
terms, common expressions, or common homographs.
2 Priority 2 entries have
precedence over longer expressions from the SYSTRAN built
-
in
dictionaries, but not over grammatical terms (the ones only ruled out by priority 1).
3
Priority 3 entries have no precedence over longer expressions or grammatical rules,
and homographs from the SYSTRAN built-in dictionaries are not considered.
For two entries with priority 3, the dictionary order decides. Note that longer
expressions with a lower priority (4-7) have precedence over a priority 3 entry.
