Abstract
A computer generates a target language text phrase from a source language text phrase. The computer receives a text phrase in a source language. The computer then determines one or more salient points of the received source language text phrase. The computer determines one or more salient points in a target language that correspond to the one or more source language salient points. The computer then generates a target language text phrase based on the one or more salient points in the target language.

- receiving, by one or more processors, a text phrase in a source language;
- determining, by the one or more processors, one or more salient points of the received source language text phrase;
- determining, by the one or more processors, one or more salient points in a target language corresponding to the one or more salient points of the source language;
- and
- generating, by the one or more processors, a target language text phrase based on the one or more salient points in the target language.
A computer program product for generating a target language text phrase, the computer program product comprising:
- one or more computer-readable storage devices and program instructions stored on at least one of the one or more storage media, the program instructions comprising:
- program instructions to receive a text phrase in a source language;
- program instructions to determine one or more salient points of the received source language text phrase;
- program instructions to determine one or more salient points in a target language corresponding to the one or more salient points of the source language;
- and
- program instructions to generate a target language text phrase based on the one or more salient points in the target language.
A system for generating a target language text phrase, the system comprising:
- one or more processors, one or more computer-readable memories, one or more computer-readable storage devices, and program instructions stored on at least one of the one or more storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more processors via at least one of the one or more memories, the program instructions comprising:
- program instructions to receive a text phrase in a source language;
- program instructions to determine one or more salient points of the received source language text phrase;
- program instructions to determine one or more salient points in a target language corresponding to the one or more salient points of the source language;
- and
- program instructions to generate a target language text phrase based on the one or more salient points in the target language.
