A Language Learning Environment for Japanese Legal Documents
نویسنده
چکیده
For foreign students of Japanese law, the World Wide Web supplies numerous online resources. Unfortunately, most of the documents are not available in translated form. In this paper we present a language learning environment, which assists law students with some basic knowledge of Japanese in reading Japanese legal texts. We use normal Web browser technology to display the Web pages and analyze the documents at the character and word level to add links to information about the Japanese characters and words. Whenever the user clicks on an item in the document, the corresponding information is displayed in a separate frame. For inexperienced readers we also support transcriptions in Roman alphabet and text segmentation.
