Abstract
A machine interpreter and method provides a structure in which words are sorted and hierarchically displayed as candidates for substitution in particular order by the display. The words are prestored in variable and invariable word groups. The words of a variable word group are displayed, a word is selected, and a translation takes place based on an invariable word group of an input sentence and the selected word. Consequently, a time for retrieving the words can be reduced.
