PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simultaneously receive voice signals and transmit translated results. SOLUTION: Portable terminals 11 and 12 are small devices having a telephone function and are provided with a recording medium that stores a user ID and language information being used, for example, such as a subscriber identity module(SIM) card. Communication between the terminals 11 and 12 is conducted through a translation server 17 connected to a network 15 and the communication is translated. The server 17 is provided with a line L on the network 15, for example, to receive voice signals from the terminal 11 and to transmit translated results (voice signals) of the voice signals from the terminal 12 to the terminal 11. Moreover, the server 17 is provided with a line P on the network 15 to receive voice signals from the terminal 12 and to transmit translated results of the voice signals from the terminal 11 to the terminal 12.
