Abstract

An electronic translator comprises an input device for entering a first word or words, a first memory circuit for storing the first words, a second memory circuit for storing second words equivalent to the first words, an access circuit for addressing the memory circuits to cause retrieval of the first word or words, or alternately the second word or words, and a control circuit for controlling activation of the access circuit. There may be additionally provided a holding circuit for holding one or more of the first words without translation thereof.
