			After you selected the untranslated strings, from the strings list on the left, click on the string you want to translate. Your selected string will appear on the right-hand side in the source strings box. Type your translation into the translation box below the source string box. Hit Save or you can hit Save all after you translate several strings. '''Remember:''' you only have to translate the language and preserve the formatting or other code that you may find in the original string.

			A very interesting feature of Transifex is called '''Translation Memory (TM) and Concordance Search'''. If the string you're translating is similar to one that was translated in the past, a translation suggestion will appear in the Editor's Suggestions tab. The higher the percentage, the more similar the two source strings are. A 100% match means the two source strings are exactly the same. In such a case, it might be safe to reuse the translation. This is helping Creative Commons to keep the consistency of the Deeds translations.

			Concordance search lets you search through the Translation Memory for a specific word or phrase and see how it was translated in other places. This is useful when there's no TM suggestion for a string, but you still want to see how something was translated elsewhere.
