Dictionary resources can be used for a number of functions, including:
 Translating terms not found in the SYSTRAN Main Dictionary.
 Overriding the target-language meaning of a term in the SYSTRAN Main
Dictionary to customize translation output.
 Ensuring that a multi-word expression is always treated as a single unit by the
translation software.

Double-click the SYSTRAN Dictionary Manager icon on your Desktop, or click Start on the
Windows Taskbar and select All Programs >Systran> SYSTRAN Dictionary Manager.
Adding Dictionary Entries
UDs include three types of terms:
 Multilingual terms
 Do Not Translate (DNT) terms that should not be translated
 Source Category terms, used to specify the grammatical category of source
terms without specifying their translations
After you specify the properties for a UD, you can add source and target language terms to
it.
