1. A method comprising:
- detecting an input from a first device, the input identifying a translation possibility from a list of alternative translation possibilities;
ranking a list of translation possibilities in a first order based on the input, to yield a ranked list of translation possibilities in a second order;
providing the ranked list of translation possibilities to the first device; and
facilitating a transfer of the ranked list of translation possibilities to a second device for display, wherein the ranked list of translation possibilities is presented contemporaneously to both the first device and the second device.

Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for presenting a machine translation and alternative translations to a user, where a selection of any particular alternative translation results in the re-ranking of the remaining alternatives. The system then presents these re-ranked alternatives to the user, who can continue proofing the machine translation using the re-ranked alternatives or by typing an improved translation. This process continues until the user indicates that the current portion of the translation is complete, at which point the system moves to the next portion.
