Abstract

A computer natural language translation system, comprising: means for inputting source language text; means for outputting target language text; transfer means for generating said target language text from said source language text using stored translation data generated from examples of source and corresponding target language texts, in which said stored translation data comprises a plurality of translation units each consisting of an aligned language unit (e.g. word). This invention generates the translation units for the translation system from a new source-target translation pair of examples, by generating source and target analyses and then finding the alignments by scoring and matching.
