LANGUAGE TRANSLATION SYSTEM HAVING MULTI-PLATFORM CAPABILITIES AND ASSOCIATED METHOD

摘要

A language translation system is provided for translating messages exchanged between users having different language requirements and/or preferences and translating the text of web content when the language of the text of that content is different from the requirements and/or preferences of a requesting user. A protocol conversion procedure is also provided that allows the language translation system to have multi-platform capabilities, including exchanging communications between devices that may have different protocols. Methods for translating a message contained within a communication or text contained within web content, and methods for converting the protocol of a communication, are also provided.
