主题: language translation in Pidgin.

 

hi everybody,

 

im working on a project which aims at integrating language translation

feature in a chat engine. i have opted PIDGIN as the desired chat

engine since it is open source ,i can manipulate its code.

 

the main idea of the project is to help out users who want to exchange

their thoughts and ideas but do not  share a common language to

communicate.

 

for example,  a user in france who understands only french wants to

chat with a  user in japan who understands only japanese. Now i want

to integrate language translation feature in Pidgin so that they can

chat using their own native languages.

 

Im not sure whether i need to write a protocol between translation

APIs and Pidgin so that they can talk between each other.Also i need

to perform transliteration because the users would be using english

keyboard to type in their native language.So again not sure whether i

need to write a protocol between transliteration software and Pidgin.

 

Also i need to detect the incoming language for a user and then

convert it into the native language of the user.

 

Please help me about how to go on from here with respect to

implementation. that is which language or software to be used as

protocols. how to integrate apis..............

 

anything will be appreciated.

 

with regards,

 

Arun
