Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer readable medium for providing a translated message in telecommunications. A request is received for translating a current message in a first language into a current message in a second language destined for a user. Whether the current message in the first language has been previously translated into a corresponding message in the second language is determined. If the corresponding message in the second language exists, the current message in the second language is generated based on the corresponding message in the second language previously translated. The current message is then sent in the second language to the user as a response to the request.

Claims (56)

1. A method implemented on a computer having at least one processor, storage, and communication platform for providing a translated message in telecommunications, comprising the steps of:

receiving, by a translation server, a request to translate a message directed to a user from a first language to a second language, wherein the request is initiated from an Internet source independent from the user;

determining, by the translation server, whether the message in the first language has been previously translated into a corresponding message in the second language;

if the result of the determining step is affirmative,

generating, by the translation server, the translated message in the second language based on the corresponding message in the second language previously translated; and

sending by the translation server, the translated message in the second language to the user.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the message in the first language complies with a first protocol and the message in the second language complies with a second protocol.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

if the result of the determining step is negative, scheduling for translation of the message in the first language;

receiving the translation of the message in the first language;

generating the translated message in the second language based on the translation of the message in the first language; and

sending the translated message in the second language to the user as a response to the request.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the translation of the message in the first language includes the translation of at least a portion of the message in the first language into the second language.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the step of generating the translated message in the second language comprises replacing the at least a portion of the message in the first language with the translation of the at least a portion of the message in the first language.

6. A method implemented on a computer having at least one processor, storage, and communication platform for providing a translated message in telecommunications, comprising the steps of:

receiving, by a translation server, a request to translate a message directed to a user from a first language to a second language, wherein the request is inititated from an Internet source independent from the user;

scheduling, by the translation server, for translation at least a portion of the message in the first language;

receiving, by the translation server, the translation of the at least a portion of the message in the first language in the second language, where the translation is performed via human translation;

generating, by the translation server, the translated message in the second language by replacing the at least a portion of the message in the first language with the translation of the at least a portion of the message in the first language; and

sending, by the translation server, the translated message in the second language to the user.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the translation of the at least a portion of the message in the first language is stored for future re-use.

8. A method implemented on a computer having at least one processor, storage, and communication platform for providing a translated message, comprising the steps of:

receiving, by a translation server, a request to translate a message directed to a user from a first language to a second language, wherein the request is intitiated from an Internet source independent from the user;

dividing, by the translation server, the message in the first language into one or more translatable components, wherein a translatable component includes a segment of text;

determining, by the translation server, whether any translatable component has been previously translated into the second language and stored as a translated component, wherein the previous translation was via at least one of machine translation, human translation, and a combination thereof;

if the result of the determining step is affirmative,

generating, by the translation server, the corresponding message in the second language by replacing each of the at least one translatable component with a corresponding translated component; and

sending, by the translation server, the generated corresponding message in the second language to the user.

9. A method implemented on a computer having at least one processor, storage, and communication platform for providing a translated message, comprising the steps of:

receiving, by a translation server, a request to translate a message directed to a user from a first language to a second language, wherein the request is initiated from an Internet source independent from the user;

dividing, by the translation server, the message in the first language into one or more translatable components, wherein a translatable component includes a segment of text;

determining, by the translation server, whether there is at least one translatable component which has no corresponding translated component generated previously via at least one of machine translation, human translation, and a combination thereof;

scheduling, by the translation server, for translation of the at least one translatable component that does not have corresponding translated component via at least one of machine translation, human translation, and a combination thereof;

receiving, by the translation server, the translation of the at least one translatable component as corresponding translated component;

generating, by the translation server, the corresponding message in the second language by replacing the at least one translatable component in the message in the first language with the corresponding translated component; and

sending, by the translation server, the generated corresponding message in the second language to the user.

10. The method of claim 8 or 9 , wherein the human translation is aided by the machine translation.

11. The method of claim 8 or 9 , wherein the machine translation is edited by a human translator.

12. The method of claim 8 or 9 , wherein the corresponding translated component is stored for future re-use.

13. A method implemented on a computer having at least one processor, storage, and communication platform for providing a translated message, comprising the steps of:

receiving, by a translation server, a request to translate a message directed to a user from a first language to a second language, wherein teh request is initiated from an Internet source independent from the user;

dividing, by the translation server, the message in the first language into one or more translatable components, wherein a translatable component includes a segment of text;

determining, by the translation server, whether any translatable component has been previously translated into the second language and stored as corresponding translated component, wherein the previous translation was via at least one of machine translation, human translation, and a combination thereof;

if the result of the determining step is affirmative,

generating, by the translation server, the translated message in the second language by replacing each of the at least one translatable component with a corresponding translated component; and

sending, by the translation server, the translated message in the second language to the user.

14. A method implemented on a computer having at least one processor, storage, and communication platform for providing a translated message, comprising the steps of:

receiving, by a translation server, a request to translate a message directed to a user from a first language to a second language, wherein the request is initiated from an Internet source independent from the user;

dividing, by the translation server, the message in the first language into one or more translatable components, wherein a translatable component includes a segment of text;

identifying, by the translation server, at least one translatable component for which no corresponding translated component in the second language is generated previously via at least one of machine translation, human translation, and a combination thereof;

scheduling, by the translation server, for translation of at least one translatable component that does not have a corresponding translated component, via at least one of machine translation, human translation, and a combination thereof, into the second language;

receiving, by the translation server, the translation of the at least one translatable component as corresponding translated component; and

generating, by the translation server, the translated message in the second language based on the corresponding translated component for each of the at least one translatable component.

15. The method of claim 13 or 14 , wherein the human translation is aided by the machine translation.

16. The method of claim 13 or 14 , wherein the machine translation is edited by a human translator.

17. The method of claim 14 , wherein the corresponding translated components is stored for future re-use.
