# Fuzzy Matching

Fuzzy matching finds similar segments (not just exact duplicates).

### How to use it

* As you navigate, Supervertaler searches your TMs for similar source text.
* Matches are scored by similarity.

### When to trust a match

* **High scores** are often safe to insert as a starting point.
* **Mid/low scores** can still be useful, but should be treated as suggestions.

### Tips

* Always review fuzzy matches before inserting.
* For formatted text, preserve tags when inserting matches.
