Abstract

Provided is a system and method for retrieving a translation of a source word based on context. For example, the context may include other words in a same file as the source word. The context can be used to identify the correct semantic meaning of the source word when the word has multiple contextual meanings. In one example, the method may include identifying a source word from a data file, determining a plurality of translation candidates for the source word which translate the source word from a source language into a different language, retrieving a target translation candidate for the source word from among the plurality of translation candidates based on context of the source word included in the data file, and outputting the translated target translation candidate for display via a display device.
