A machine translation framework for translating Bangla assertive, interrogative and imperative sentences into English

This paper proposes a technique to translate Bangla sentence into corresponding English sentence using context sensitive grammar rules. A set of context sensitive grammar rules is proposed to translate Bangla sentences including assertive, interrogative and imperative sentences. The proposed rules are developed based on the mood or intonation of sentences rather than structure of the sentences. Machine translation system works with three major steps: parsing, transfer and generation. We propose algorithms for these three major stages. The evaluation result reveals that the proposed machine translation system can translate Bangla sentences into English with 83% accuracy and gives better accuracy compare to the Google translator for some selected sentences.
