Abstract: An electronic translator is characterized in that a control circuit is provided for providing a translation of a non-inflected form of a word upon entry of an inflected form of the word. In another preferred form of the invention, words are stored in a memory circuit in such a manner that a first memory contains address information referring to a second memory and corresponding to the first letter of each of a group of words. The second memory stores address information related to each of the second letter of the respective words. In a further preferred form of the invention, the memory comprises several memory circuits each of which stores a plurality of words belonging to a common level or rank. The plurality of words of a selected rank are displayed in turn and an operator may attempt to input words equivalent to the displayed words.

Abstract: An electronic translator includes a memory for storing a plurality of words. The memory is characterized in that it stores the plurality of words in random order with an address code representing an address of the memory added to each of the words. The address denoted by the address code added to each of the words is the address of the next word in alphabetical sequence whereby the randomly words may be addressed in the alphabetical order.

Abstract: An electronic translator comprises a memory for storing a plurality of trios each comprising one word, one phrase containing the word, and one translated word or words euivalent to the phrase. The memory is addressed to retrieve an input word and to develop one of the plurality of phrases and translated words. A circuit is provided for detecting and selecting one word, contained within a phrase entered by an input device, suitable for finding the proper address in the memory which contains the phrase and translated words sought.

Abstract: An electronic translator is characterized in that similarity detection circuit is provided for detecting similarity between letters within a first word and those within a second word in the same language as the first word, with the object of locating a second word stored in memory having letters which are similar to the letters of the first word. In another form of the present invention, the first word is entered containing at least one Arabic numeral to obtain a translated word in a different language. For this purpose, the memory has a plurality of translated words containing the at least one Arabic numeral.

Abstract: An electronic language interpreter is characterized by having a display device for displaying second words represented in a second language equivalent to a first word in a first language. When the data length of the second words exceeds the capacity of digits contained within the display device, the second words are displayed with shifting or running of the overall data on the display device. Separating means are associated with the display device for separating the second words in response to the presence of a particular mark such as a comma, a part of speech etc. The particular mark is allotted in a certain portion between the second words.
