Unlike [in dialogue-based machine translation], in transfer-based MT(TBMT) the process is separated into three steps – source text analysis, structural transfer of the analysis result to a structure suited for the target language, and target language text generation. The transfer rules depend on the language pair selected for translation. 4, record 1, English, - transfer%2Dbased%20machine%20translation
