However, modern technology opens new horizons to transloting in a more comfortable situation introd ucing the enormous amount of data and higher speed. In this study it has been tried to compare the quality of translations produced with and withoul the help of the parollel corpus to see whether using a parallel corpus in translating has any effect on the output quality of translations made by translation students. The resulls show that all stude nts achieved 55% improvement in the translation with the help of corpus which is very en couraging.
