Abstract

This paper discusses how to improve the ability of college students majoring in translation to use CAT software. With the arrival of big data's time, the mode of translation has also changed greatly. For example, the new mode based on "Internet big data Translation", represented by crowdsourcing translation, has become an embryonic form. Every translator can cooperate with all kinds of translators around the world through the translation platform. In order to adapt to this kind of work mode, the translator must have the ability to make use of all kinds of information technology and tools. The most important of these tools is the CAT (computer aided Translation) software. Only when students are able to skillfully use a variety of tools, including using a cloud translation (machine translation) platform, can they adapt to the requirements of the current language service market for translators who will be more competitive in the future job market.
