Abstract
A translation communication system having memory means for storing past communication information and past translated information including as original word/translated word pair obtained from the communication information, and supply means for supplying the translated information useful for determining the translated word candidate to the translation means. With this construction, when the translation means translates a first language into a second language in conversation, the supply means retrieves the communication information in the first language from the memory means in accordance with the input original sentence in the first language, and supplies an original word/translated word pair in accordance with the retrieval result. Therefore, as the translated word in the second language, the present system uses the same word as the original word previously input by the other side's operator who uses the second language. Therefore, the other side's operator can receive a correctly translated answer from this side's operator who uses the first language.
