Abstract

This paper presents a survey of Machine translation system for Indian Regional languages to English language. Machine translation is important for breaking language barrier. Out of 1.3 billion India population, hardly 10% people can speak, read and write English with varied degree of proficiency. With the advent of Information Technology many documents and web pages are coming up in a local language so there is a large need of good MT systems to address all these issues in order to establish a proper communication between states and union governments to exchange information amongst the people of different states. This paper discusses the various approaches which have been applied in translation systems for Indian languages to English languages. Some of the important Indian language translation systems implemented with these techniques along with their capabilities and limitations are also discussed.
