Translation memory systems can use fuzzy logic. Simplifying the extent of
vocabulary greatly increases the fuzzy matches, greatly reducing
hand-translation and thus the primary cost.

i'm curious: how will these reduce translation costs? generally translation
is paid by the word, whether the language is simplified or not.
