Abstract
The present invention performs machine translation by matching fragments of a source language sentence to be translated to source language portions of an example in example base. When all relevant examples have been identified in the example base, the examples are subjected to phrase alignment in which fragments of the target language sentence in each example are aligned against the matched fragments of the source language sentence in the same example. A translation component then substitutes the aligned target language phrases from the matched examples for the matched fragments in the source language sentence.
