A wire electric discharge machine capable of taper machining with an improved accuracy. A reference wire correction amount d set in advance is determined to be a proper value for a wire-diameter correction amount for a speed control plane, and adjustment amounts for adjusting the reference wire correction amount for the upper and lower surfaces of a workpiece are determined to be proportional to (1-Lu/Lm) and (1-Ll/Lm), respectively, where Lu, Lm and Ll are machining distances at the upper surface, speed control plane and lower surface, respectively. As a proportionality coefficient, a reference adjustment amount e is set in advance. Using adjustment amounts e(1-Lu/Lm) and e(1-Ll/Lm), wire-diameter correction amounts for the workpiece upper and lower surfaces are determined to be d+e(1-Lu/Lm) and d+e(1-Ll/Lm). When a workpiece setting table and upper and lower wire guides are driven, axes are controlled so that a wire electrode follows, on the workpiece upper and lower surfaces, paths shifted by the wire-diameter amounts, respectively.
