Abstract
If a context process range extending unit cannot obtain context information required by a context processing unit, from a range to be translated, it extends the context process range. Then, the context processing unit performs a context process, and passes extracted context information to a translation processing unit in order to perform translation, based on the extended context process range.

A translating apparatus, comprising:
- translation target range setting means for setting a range to be translated in an original text;
- context process range setting means for setting a context process range in the original text which is at least partially different from the range to be translated;
- and
- translation processing means for translating an original text in the range to be translated into a translated text, based on a context in the context process range.

A translating method, comprising the steps of:
- specifying a portion of an original text as a range to be translated;
- setting a context process range in the original text, at least a portion of which is different from the range to be translated;
- referencing a second original word within the context process range, if a first translated word belonging to a first field and a second translated word belonging to a second field, exist for a first original word in the range to be translated in the original text;
- and
- selecting the first translated word for the first original word, if the second original word belongs to the first field.
