This paper describes about some lexicon as well as structural mappings pertaining to Hindi-Malayalam machine translation (MT) system. The system is developed as part of the Hindi-Malayalam Speech to Speech (S2S) interactive Voice Response System (IVRS). Malayalam and Hindi are both Indian languages and their structure is almost similar to each other. In most cases translated sentence follows the same word order of the source sentence. But rarely, it is required to modify the structure of sentence in order to get proper target language output. Moreover some lexicon patterns need to get special considerations. Pattern Restructuring module introduced to handle and solve these dissimilarities in language family.

Abstract


This paper describes about some lexicon as well as structural mappings pertaining to Hindi-Malayalam machine translation (MT) system. The system is developed as part of the Hindi-Malayalam Speech to Speech (S2S) interactive Voice Response System (IVRS). Malayalam and Hindi are both Indian languages and their structure is almost similar to each other. In most cases translated sentence follows the same word order of the source sentence. But rarely, it is required to modify the structure of sentence in order to get proper target language output. Moreover some lexicon patterns need to get special considerations. Pattern Restructuring module introduced to handle and solve these dissimilarities in language family.
