ABSTRACT:
In a translation apparatus, a desire phrase is input via a tablet by selecting an appropriate item from a menu or inputting of a desire sentence in a first language. A desire analyzer analyzes the desire phrase and, if a conversational situation cannot be specified, presents a query for narrowing the desire content. When the conversational situation is specified, the desire analyzer presents a query for further narrowing the desire content, thereby determining the phrase to be translated. An optimum conversational sentence selector selects a conversational sentence in a second language which expresses the determined desire content from a conversational sentence storage, and a display section displays the selected conversational sentence.
