When I edit a post, does it translate only the relative text I added, or it translate the whole article again?

Because it have BIG effect on money.

Hello,

The Advanced Translation Editor which runs the automatic translation splits your content into small segments. If you update the original content, then it will only force a new translation for each segment, not the complete content.

If you experience a different behavior, then it might depend on how your content is created.

If for example, you paste the whole text of your post or page into one single text block or page builder widget, then it might occur that the Advanced Translation Editor will expect more content to get updated than expected.

In order to verify you can switch the translation method inside the WPML settings page "To translate what you choose" and then see what is actually expected to get translated on the Advanced Translation Editor.

Best regards
Andreas
