noun
transfer interpreter
A computing term for a machine translation system that uses a transfer-based approach, converting language of origin to an intermediate representation before generating the target language. Rare and highly technical; not in general use.
転送穿孔翻訳機は、かつて機械翻訳の研究で使われた概念だ。
The transfer interpreter is a concept once used in machine translation research.
Compound of 転送 (transfer), 穿孔 (perforation, here likely referring to a punched-card or intermediate representation), and 翻訳機 (translation machine). The exact historical derivation is uncertain; the term appears to be a technical coinage from early machine translation research.
