The only thing I can think of, but not sure it's the cause, is: When I exported my terms from Trados/MultiTerm (U.S. English to Mexican Spanish), I used the generic English and Spanish in MemoQ.

But that caused me to lose all my English and Spanish, too! Thankfully, I was able to recreate my TB from a backup.
