DELIMITED MACHINE-ENABLED LANGUAGE TRANSLATION

原文（中国語）

In messaging applications wherein messages transmitted by a user are translated into the language of a message recipient, the informational integrity of message content can be preserved by delimiting selected terms within a message (for example, the names of people and places, and technical and trade terminology, which are easily mistranslated by common translation algorithms). The application may then maintain the originally-entered content of the delimited terms, while translating the terms that are not delimited. The translated message may then be displayed to the recipient, but with the delimited terms shown with their originally-entered content (but preferably with formatting different from that of the terms that were not delimited).
