The UNL<->NL Memory is a set of mappings between a given natural language and UNL. It may be unidirectional (UNL-NL Memory or NL-UNL Memory) or bidirectional (UNL<->NL Memory). It is used to improve and normalize the results of the UNLization and the NLization, as it contain segments that have been previously UNLized or NLized.

The UNL<->NL Memory may be provided in two different formats:


Extended format

UNL<->NL Memory entries in extended format must comply with the Translation Memory eXchange Specs, as follows:

   <tu>
       <tuv xml:lang="en"><seg>a good deal</seg><tuv>
       <tuv xml:lang="unl"><seg>400059171</seg><tuv>
   </tu>
    

Where:
<tu> is the beginning of the translation unit
</tu> is the end of the translation unit
<tuv> is the beginning translation unit variant
</tuv> is the end of the translation unit variant
<seg> is the beginning of the translation segment
</seg> is the end of the translation segment

Simplified format

UNL<->NL Memory entries in simplified format must be represented as a set of network disambiguation rules, as follows:

equ(SOURCE;TARGET)=DC;

Where:
equ is the UNL relation for "equivalent";
SOURCE is the source segment;
TARGET is the target segment;
DC is the degree of certainty (i.e., the likelihood of the relation between the SOURCE and the TARGET)
