Abstract: Chinese translation of English verbs is one of the difficulties for machine translation. A new Chinese translation algorithm of English verbs based on semantic pattern base, fixed pattern base and variable base iss presented. The extraction method of semantic pattern is introduced; the semantic pattern base, fixed pattern base and variable base of commonly used verbs are constructed. Three verb semantic patterns are concluded. The verb semantic pattern base consists of V semantic pattern base, contiguous VO semantic pattern base and non-contiguous VO semantic pattern base. Experimental results show that the method can resolve the Chinese translation of English verbs effectively.

Key words: machine translation, semantic type, verb, semantic pattern, variable

摘要： 英语动词正确汉译是机器翻译的难点。为此，提出一种基于动词语义模式库、固定句式库和变量库的英语动词汉译算法。介绍语义模式的提取方法，构建常用动词的语义模式库、固定句式库和变量库，归纳动词语义模式的3种结构形式：V语义模式，VO相邻语义模式和VO非相邻语义模式。动词语义模式库由上述3种结构形式对应的模式库构成。实验结果表明，该方法能有效解决英语常用动词的汉译问题。
