Abstract
A speech translating apparatus includes a input unit, a speech recognizing unit, a translating unit, a first dividing unit, a second dividing unit, an associating unit, and an outputting unit. The input unit inputs a speech in a first language. The speech recognizing unit generates a first text from the speech. The translating unit translates the first text into a second language and generates a second text. The first dividing unit divides the first text and generates first phrases. The second dividing unit divides the second text and generates second phrases. The associating unit associates semantically equivalent phrases within each group of phrases. The outputting unit sequentially outputs the associated phrases in a phrase order within the second text.
