Translation Divergence in English-Sanskrit-Hindi Language Pairs

چکیده
The development of a machine translation system needs that we identify the patterns of divergence between two languages. Though a number of MT developers have given attention to this problem, it is difficult to derive general strategies which can be used for any language pair. Therefore, further exploration is always needed to identify different sources of translation divergence in different pairs of translation languages. In this paper, we discuss translation pattern between English-Sanskrit and Hindi-Sanskrit of various constructions to identify the divergence in English-Sanskrit-Hindi language pairs. This will enable us to come up with strategies to handle these situations and coming up with correct translation. The base has been the classification of translation divergence presented by Dorr [Dorr, 1994]. keywords: Machine Translation, Translation Divergence

Machine Translation, Language Divergence and Lexical Resources
The key concern in machine translation, whose purpose it is to convert documents from one language to another, is the language divergence problem. This problem arises from the fact that languages make different lexical and syntactic choices for expressing an idea. Language divergence needs to be tackled not only for translating between language pairs from distant families (e.g, English and Japa...
متن کاملUsing Rich Morphology in Resolving Certain Hindi-english Machine Translation Divergence
Identification and resolution of translation divergence (TD) is very crucial for any automated machine translation (MT) system. Although this problem has received attention of a number of MT developers, devising general strategies is hard to achieve. Solution to the language specific pairs appears to be comparatively tractable. In this paper, we present a technique that exploits the rich morpho...
متن کاملDivergence patterns between English and Sanskrit Machine Translation
The translation divergence is a challenging problem in the area of machine translation. A detailed study of divergence issues in machine translation is required for their proper classification and detection. The language divergences between English and Sanskrit can be considered as representing the divergences between SVO (Subject Verb Object) and SOV (Subject Object Verb) classes of languages....
متن کاملDivergence Patterns in Machine Translation between Hindi and English
The issue of translation divergence is an important research topic in the area of machine translation. An exhaustive study of the divergence issues in MT is necessary for their proper classification and resolution. In the literature on MT, scholars have examined the issue and have proposed ways for their classification and resolution (Dorr 1993, 1994). However, the topic still needs further exp...
متن کاملApplying Sanskrit Concepts for Reordering in MT
This paper presents a rule-based reordering approach for English-Hindi machine translation. We have used the concept of pada, from Pān. inian Grammar to frame the reordering rules. A pada is a word form which is ready to participate in a sentence. The rules are generic enough to apply on any English-Indian language pair. We tested the rules on English-Hindi language pair and obtained better com...
