ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a text translation system, wherein the memory of a computer system stores the word type, the semantic type, a juncture code, a position code, a transfer code, as well as the associated translation into the target language for each word of the source language. By means of the juncture code and the position code, the compounds of the source language are decomposed into the words of which they consist. For these words the associated translations into the target language are read from the memory. The translations are then compounded following standard translation rules. For this purpose, translation peculiarities of compounds are taken into account by the transfer code. The invention eliminates storing compounds in the memory of the computer system. Instead, only the individual words of which the compounds consist are stored. This greatly reduces the memory space required for storing all the words of a source language and simultaneously increases the processing speed of the text translation system.
