Patent number: 11403470Abstract: A storage unit stores a target term, a substitute term, a substitute translated term, and a representative term. The substitute translated term is a translation of the substitute term and is expressed in a second language. The representative term indicates a type of the target term and is expressed in the second language. A communication unit acquires a provisional translation that is a translation of a processed sentence from a first external device that has a translation function. When the storage unit does not store a target translated term that is a translation of the target term, a controller replaces the substitute translated term contained in the provisional translation with the representative term to generate a second display-purpose translated sentence, and then causes a display unit to display the second display-purpose translated sentence.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2019Date of Patent: August 2, 2022Assignee: PANASONIC INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT CO., LTD.Inventor: Tomokazu Ishikawa
