Abstract

The aim of the graduation thesis is to develop an application for smartphones with the Android operating system, which will enable translation of text from a selected language into a target language. The basic idea of the thesis it to transform the experience of the existing language translator (Bing Translator) into a functional smartphone application. The database contains 12,000 most commonly used words in everyday English. On application installation the users are limited to smaller number of words and they select the two languages for translation (out of 20 languages possible). The Java application uses the database and generates the translations in both languages in advance; the users can append new words from an arbitrary web site as well. The word can be spelt in different declinations, genders, tenses and numbers so the translator searches for the shortened forms of words. For greater clarity the application uses different colours.
