QA Checker > Word list
Use the settings to specify word list checks. The word list check is a simple term verifier. It checks for words that must not be used or that are incorrectly formatted. Instead of using a termbase, users can enter a list of incorrect and correct word forms. For example, if the document is not supposed to contain Website, and web site is the correct form, the user can enter the word pair via the respective text fields.
Users can decide to ignore case and/or search whole words only.
These settings appear in multiple dialogs in SDL Trados Studio. Go to Dialogs for verification settings for more information about finding the appropriate dialog.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
Check word list | Select this if you want the QA check to check for incorrect words. Next to this check on the right-hand side is a drop-down list with three options: Error, Warning and Note. Select the severity you want to apply if this check finds errors. |
Wrong form | Enter the forbidden or wrongly formatted word or phrase. You can enter multiple word phrases, such as World Wide Web or network element supply shortage, for example. |
Correct form | Enter the correct form of the forbidden or wrongly formatted word. |
Action | Select this option to display the Action drop-down menu where you can perform the following commands:
|
Ignore case | Select this if you want to ignore case when matching words in the translation files against the words in the Wrong form list. |
Search whole words only | Select this if you only want exact matches for words in the Wrong form list to be found. For example, if you have the word "flex" in the Wrong form list and you select this option, the words "reflex" and "flexible" will not be found by the check. |
