-TER Introduction for Amazon Suppliers
+**TER Introduction for Amazon Suppliers**\\
+**What is TER?**\\
+TER Stands for Translation Edit Range. It is a way to measure the edit distance of a post-
+edited segment. The TER score can be easily and accurately converted into a weighted word to calculate fair financial compensation for the work.\\
+**How is it calculated?**\\
+Depending on the complexity of changes, the weight of an edit can be 25% (no edit needed, so 25% of the no-match rate is paid to review the segment) or 100% (a big effort, so the full rate applies for that segment). The complete TER effort table is as follows:\\

+**Does it apply to all projects?**\\
+No. TER will be used as the way to calculate payments only for MTPE work and only for MT’ed segments.
+Only 0-75% TM matches (new words) are machine-translated. This means that you will still work on segments with TM matches between 76-100%.\\
+To summarize, your compensation will be calculated from:\\
+The weighted wordcount for 76-100% TM matches (calculated as usual) and\\
+The weighted TER score (calculated as per the table above) for 0-75% TM matches. \\
+**When will TER be calculated?**\\
+Naturally, a TER score can only be calculated after the post-editing work is done. For
+estimation purposes, we will provide you with our historical MT quality TER reports so you can plan and budget accordingly.
