La traduction assistée par ordinateur (TAO) désigne un ensemble d’outils informatiques utilisés par un traducteur humain pour l’aider à traduire.Dans ce contexte, c’est bien le traducteur humain qui est au centre du processus, les logiciels étant utilisés pour faciliter certains aspects de son travail. La TAO se distingue de la traduction automatique (TA) qui, elle, concerne les traductions produites essentiellement par un outil informatique, la TA pouvant néanmoins impliquer une part d’intervention humaine, comme par exemple la pré-édition ou la post-édition (Machine Translation *). En réalité, pour bien comprendre ce qu’est la TAO, il faut l’envisager au sein d’un continuum de possibilités de traduction, l’homme et la machine y intervenant dans des proportions variables.
