Translation supporting program, apparatus, and method

摘要

In a computer for supporting translation work, an acquisition unit retrieves a pair of original document including a plurality of original sentences and translated document including a plurality of translated sentences from a document storage unit. An estimation unit counts the number of original sentences included in the original document and the number of translated sentences included in the translated document, and estimates a position of a translated sentence corresponding to each original sentence in the translated document based on a ratio of the number of original sentences to the number of translated sentences and a positional order of each original sentence in the original document. An alignment unit aligns each original sentence with the translated sentence located at the estimated position, and outputs information indicating the correspondences between the original and translated sentences.
