Style Can be Formally Defined in a Style Guide That Authors & Translators are Requested to Adhere to
(But it Doesn’t Have to Be)
Style is a Consistency of Voice Across Multiple Documents
Style Tells us Something About the Authors
Style Reflects Patterns of Conscious Grammatical and lexical Choices
Style caters to the Audience’s needs if you get it right
For the Purposes of StyleScorer, the Documents Define the Style, Rather than the Style Defining the Documents – let
the data decide

• We Take Two or More Client Documents (TMs, Word Docs, Plain Text, etc.) & Feed Them Into StyleScorer
• Works Best With a Total of 10k or More Segments/Sentences
• We Then Take One or More New Documents & Ask StyleScorer to Rate Them
• Results File is Tab-Delimited With Test Filename & Score Per Line
• Scores are Analog 0-4, With Higher Scores Denoting Better Style Match
