In addition, the system has a display control section (7) for realizing a first display mode for displaying the original and translated sentences respectively on origi­nal and translation display sections of a display screen of the display section (8), a second display mode for mainly displaying the original sentences on the display screen, and a third display mode for mainly displaying the translated sentences on the display screen.
