Abstract

A computer language translation development system, for developing data for use in translation, comprising: means for utilising corresponding source and target example texts to generate translation units each comprising, in the source and/or target language, a first language item and a second language item of the same language, and means for subsequently generating restrictions on candidate second language items which can be combined with each said first language item. A computer language translation development system, for developing data for use in translation, comprising: means for generating original translation units each comprising, in the source and/or target language, a first language item, and property data which restricts with which second language items that first language item can occur; and means for generating additional synthetic translation units comprising new combinations of the first language items and property data of said original translation units.
