The study yields the following findings: 1) Pre-editing strategies are mainly based on semantic and cultural levels, letting the translation texts have a significant improvement in accuracy and readability. 2) Pre-editing reflects the creativity and subjectivity of human, enabling the machine to capture the connotations and emotions of the original texts, and reducing the uncertainty and time required for post-editing. 3) Due to the unpredictability of machine errors, pre-editing cannot resolve all problems of translation texts. Both post-editing and pre-editing are indispensable during the human-machine cooperation process.展开更多
