Once the proper glossary file is uploaded to Google Cloud, the user can use the memoQ plugin to turn it into a glossary resource, make it available for Google’s MT translation, and enable it to appear in the list of glossaries in the memoQ plugin.
In memoQ 9.12, we’ve made the process easier, so even those of you who don’t have an advanced technical background can access your glossaries directly from the plugin by opening the Create Glossary resource dialogue, configuring your settings, and entering your glossary data.

It is not an MT engine, but a platform for building engines. Globalese is not your traditional machine translation plugin. Once you start working on your localization project, go to MT settings in memoQ and enter the service URL, your API key, the source and target languages, and the profile name. To set it up, all you need to do is create a profile on the NiuTrans website to receive an API key. It has recently been supported as a private plugin, but now it has become public. Established in 2012, NiuTrans is used in 300+ language pairs (centered mostly around Chinese). NiuTrans is a cloud-based machine translation engine. New MT plugins on board: NiuTrans and Globalese
