Abstract
A translation machine is provided with an idiom registering capability. If a header standing for a idiom contains two or more variable parts, these parts are represented by representative symbols. With this representing method, the idiom is allowed to be easily registered and retrieved. This makes it possible to shorten the registering time, reduce the translating toil and prevent increase of information storage capacity. The translation machine includes an input unit, a storing unit, an output unit, an idiom registering unit, and a translating unit for performing a routine translating operation. The idiom registering unit operates to register an idiom header with two or more representative symbols standing for words or word trains sharing a predetermined attribute.
