And just another question:

I can't manage to set up Trados the way that the Greek semicolon, used as a question mark, is used as the end of the segment when segmenting. Are there any hints on how to do this, please?

Thank a lot!

*Keep in mind that you apply this rule to a particular TM. If you use more than one TM, it must be your segmenting TM, i.e. the one that goes first in the list of TMs.
