Well, yes, but this appears to be manual and does not automatically

Erm, I am a bit skeptic about this as nouns (and expressions) in
Hungarian may be conjugated; inserting them into a sentence would
require one to understand the original context of the word -- that is,
if some automated system could translate those words in case of such a
language, no humans would be required any more at all... :-)
I would think translations of larger strings ("This is an example of a
FreeBSD system") would override translations of smaller strings
("FreeBSD").
But it's not clear, and a test would help. Certainly it can be made
to work. Other large projects are using these systems, with a lot of
content translated. Because of the translation database, rewrites or
massive edits would force the translators to start over.
I've worked with Trados before (commercial CAT software) and there you
can set up a match percentage limit. If the limit is met, you are
offered the translation of the matching text but you are able to edit
it. From the translations you write a dictionary file is created, which
stores earlier translations, so as you progress, there is always a wider
basis of translations to search for matches. I think using similar
methods in FreeBSD would be very practical if we can find proper open
source CAT tools. I agree with Warren that we should improve our
workflow since it is really outdated. As for expanding the entities, I'm
concerned that we may loose functionality so I'd prefer just handling
entity references as plain text there and translating them in the entity
files or something similar.
