SIMPLE MALAY TO ENGLISH TRANSLATOR

In the modern world, there is an increased need for language translation. Attempts of language translation are as old as computer themselves. Machine translation is the attempt to automate all, or part of the process of translating from one human language to another language. Machine Translation involves translating from a source natural language to a target language. Machine Translation is hard because structures in one human language often do not correspond in a simple way to structures in another. This paper represents a prototype of a Simple Malay to English Translator. This translator is developed to translate simple Malay sentence to English sentence since there is not many Malay-English translator available. The main tools that will be used for the project development are Java Language, Forte for Java 4.0 Community Edition and Microsoft Notepad version 5.1. From the research done, a dictionary that is used for a machine translator is usually being created in a notepad file for easy retrieval compared to using Microsoft Access of other database application. The ambiguity problem would not be addressed in this project. Hence, the goal of the project is to translate syntactically correct and the semantic factor is not taken into consideration
