Joining segments
Jan 27, 2023
I believe that for the situation you describe you can join the two adjacent segments (Ctrl+J). So
Business School
Becomes
Business School
and the TM will be correct.

Not AFAIK

Not as far as I know. However, one thing you can do is to change the setting that confirms a segment immediately after you leave it. This will allow you to have different translations for the same source text. Unfortunately it means that you won't be able to see whether you have dealt with a segment, unless you always translate from top to bottom.

Hello , John,
Yes, joining segments would work, but in these cases, they do not show as consecutive segments in Phrase.
We often get a situation along the lines of:
Business Segment X Segment Y [...] Segment Z School.
I had it in my mind that I had seen a way to exclude it. May be it was not for Phrase.
Thanks.
JL
