Abstract
An electronic translator comprises a first memory for memorizing a plurality of words represented in a first language, such words comprising one or more first letters which remain unchanged regardless of inflection, and one or more second letters which may change. An input device is provided for entering a first word. A comparison circuit is provided for comparing parts of the first word and the one or more first letters. Upon the occurrence of the equivalency detected by the comparison circuit, it is detected that the first word is identical to one of the words developed by the first memory. A second memory is provided for memorizing a plurality of translated words, represented in a second language, each corresponding to words stored in the first memory. In another form of the present invention, the first memory is provided for memorizing a plurality of words associated with the first word regardless of whether it is a noninflected word or an inflected word.
