ABSTRACT
This paper describes a transfer based scheme for translating Malayalam, a Dravidian language, to English. This system inputs Malayalam sentences and outputs equivalent English sentences. The system comprises of a preprocessor for splitting the compound words, a morphological parser for context disambiguation and chunking, a syntactic structure transfer module and a bilingual dictionary. All the modules are morpheme based to reduce dictionary size. The system does not rely on a stochastic approach and it is based on a rule-based architecture along with various linguistic knowledge components of both Malayalam and English. The system uses two sets of rules: rules for Malayalam morphology and rules for syntactic structure transfer from Malayalam to English. The system is designed using artificial intelligence techniques.
