Make the Japanese-English Translation Patterns

We made the Japanese-English translation patterns by using the Japanese-English word dictionary and Japanese-English sentence pairs. The translation patterns are created with the following steps.

Step 1

Compare each Japanese word of a Japanese-English sentence pair with an Japanese word of the Japanese-English word dictionary

Step 2

Compare an English word of the Japanese-English word dictionary with each word of the English sentence of the translation pairs

Step 3

Match up the Japanese-English word pairs and replace each pair with a variable, such as X1, X2, X3.

Step 4

Repeat steps 1 to 3 for all sentence pairs.
