Abstract

This article aims to solve the problem of extracting the cultural terms and their correspondent English translations from the heterogeneous literature of the translation of the ancient Chinese classics. As the tool of text processing, regular expressions can help to realize the matching in the patterned text. This research focuses on design the target-oriented regular expressions to fit the pattern of the to-be-searched text so as to improve the operating efficiency. At the same time, the generator of regular expressions is designed to decrease the difficulty of its application.
