I own Fluency, and I was trying to master it for several months... Then I quit. You wonder why?
My language pair is English - Russian. Russian words and phrases are changing depending on a multiple of circumstances (time, gender, case, etc.). Fluency can not learn all these forms, and therefore "translating over and over again" still necessary. Working with Fluency slows me down by two times at least. [/quote]
I will not criticize nor defend Fluency or any other CAT. In German, as in Russian, there is also a large number of flexible words, but this does not preclude the use of translation tools. The CAT are made for what they are made for: very repetitive or similar texts with the same or similar jargon.
