Similarly, the result of the second query may give the translators an idea about possible lexical transformation: missing need = 14 (5.035) important missing = 8 (2.930) missing vital = 8 (2.322) lack necessary = 204 (1.982)… essential lack = 86 (0.908)… The concordance for the last pair of descriptors contains the phrase they lack the three essentials, which illustrates the transformation.
the resulting translation may be the following: Children attend schools that are in poor repair and lacking basic essentials our system supports translators in making decisions about indirect translation equivalents in a number of ways: it suggests possible structural and lexical transformations for contextual descriptors; it verifies which translation variants co-occur in the tL corpus; and it illustrates the use of the transformed tL lexical descriptors in actual contexts.
