Abstract
A system and method for translating a document from one language to another language using different translation resources depending on the document or portion of the document being translated. The original document which is to be translated contains information indicating the dictionary or translation rules which are to be utilized for the translation. The information contained within the document used to indicate different sections is encoded using Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) tags. Documents which have been previously translated can be used to train the translation system. Also, a side-by-side display of the original document and the translated document is presented to allow the user to compare both the original and translated document.
