Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain translation of a sentence including the fine nuance regardless of the knowledge level of the translator, by outputting a word and its object in response to the ability of the translator. CONSTITUTION:A sentence of a prescribed language and an identifier showing the knowledge level of a translator are inputted through an input part 1. Thus the information on these sentence and identifier are stored in a store part 2. The part 2 sends the sentence to an output part 6 and at the same time both the sentence and the identifier to an analyzing part 3 respectively. The part 3 decomposes the sentence for each word and sends these words and the identifier to a retrieving part 4. The part 4 retrieves a correspondence table 4-2 based on the identifier and obtains an identifier in response to the relevant knowledge level. In addition, the part 4 retrieves a dictionary 5 to extract a desired object. Then the part 6 outputs the sentence stored in the part 2 and also the object corresponding to each word.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Summary] The present invention provides an analysis unit that breaks down a sentence created in a predetermined original language into word units, and a dictionary that stores words and object words with identifiers indicating the translator's ability. When translating a sentence, it outputs a target word according to the user's ability, allowing for accurate and fast translation.

[Industrial application field]

The present invention relates to a translation support device that facilitates translation of sentences created in the original languages of English, German, French, and Japanese, for example.

Recently, the handling of documents and texts in foreign languages has become popular, and there are many translation support devices in use that are convenient for translating foreign languages.In general, translation work is automated, and these devices is huge and translates the entire text, resulting in a lack of nuance in the finer details of the text, and in extreme cases, the text may become incomprehensible.

Therefore, there is a need for a simple translation support device that does not lose the nuances of the original text.

[Conventional technology]

In order to deal with the above problems of automatic translation devices, translation support devices with a simple structure are used. This commonly used simple translation support device is configured on the basis that a translator translates the original text.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

As described above, in conventional translation support devices with a simple structure, the translation depends on the ability of the translator, and this also has the problem of not being able to provide accurate translations that include detailed nuances.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above-mentioned conventional situation, it is an object of the present invention to provide a translation support device with a simple structure that can accurately translate sentences.

[Means for solving problems]

As shown in the principle diagram of FIG. 1, in the present invention, when an identifier indicating the translator's ability level and a sentence are input, the analysis unit 3 breaks down the text into words and searches the dictionary 5 using the broken down words. This dictionary 5 stores object words with identifiers attached to each word. Therefore, the dictionary 5 is searched according to the ability, and the corresponding object word is output to the output section 6.

Note that sentences are also output to the output unit 6.

[Effect]

The output unit 6 outputs a word and the object of the word in accordance with the translator's ability, making it possible to translate the meaning of the sentence including fine nuances without being influenced by the translator's knowledge level.

〔Example〕

FIG. 2 is a block diagram of an embodiment in which the present invention is applied;
A text in a predetermined original language and an identifier indicating the translator's ability, ie, knowledge level, are input to the input unit 1.

The input section 1 stores the inputted information in the storage section 2.

The storage section 2 sends the text to the output section 6, and also sends the text and the identifier to the analysis section 3.

The analysis section 3 breaks down the sentences in the storage section 2 into word units and sends them to the search section 4 together with the words and the above-mentioned identifiers.Of course, the identifiers only need to be input once unless the translator changes.

The search unit 4 has a register 4- which holds the input identifier.
1, and a search processing section 4-3 that searches the correspondence table 4-2 using the identifier stored in the register 4-1.

Therefore, the identifier sent from the analysis section 3 is stored in the register 4.
-1, and the search processing unit 4-3 inputs this register 4.
-1 Search the correspondence table 4-2 based on the content to find an identifier according to the knowledge level.

The search unit 4 searches the dictionary 5 and extracts a desired target word.

For example, the translator's knowledge level is the identifier IQI, Ill.

2”, and if a translator with knowledge level ゛O° does the translation, register 4 of identifier 101
-1, search the correspondence table 4-2 and find the identifiers (Atiil) Ql, Ill according to the knowledge level.
, find 121. In other words, since the knowledge level is the lowest, all knowledge levels higher than that are required. The search processing unit 4-3 searches the dictionary 5 using the found Bli&t+Besshi and the word.

In the dictionary 5, words and object words to which identifiers are attached are registered in advance. Therefore, the search section 4 selects the relevant object word and inputs it to the output section 6.

The output unit 6 outputs the sentences stored in the storage unit 2 and also outputs the object corresponding to the word.

For example, these outputs may be displayed on screen 7 of a CRT display device.
is displayed as shown in Figure 3. The translator translates based on what is displayed on the display screen.

The dictionary 5 in FIG. 3 includes, for example, i-words COME and KINGD.
Identifiers '0', '1°, ° for OM, THY
If the object words with 2° are stored, and a translator with an intelligence level of "1" translates,
THI the text! When KINGDOM COME is input, the display screen 7 of the CRT display device becomes as shown in the figure. Therefore, the displayed target word is selected and translated.

The above explanation has been made using English as an example, but it goes without saying that there is no problem in any original language.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, accurate translation according to the intelligence level of the translator can be performed with a simple configuration, and the present invention has an extremely useful effect as a translation support device.
