The Challenges of Handling Proverbs in Malay-English Machine Translation – a research paper

*This paper was presented in the 14th International Conference on Translation 2013 ( http://ppa14atf.usm.my/ ). 27 – 29 August 2013, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Penang. The PDF version is here: www.scribd.com/doc/163669571/Khirulnizam-The-Challenges-of-Automated-Detection-and-Translation-of-Malay-Proverb The test data is here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/163669588/Test-Data-for-the-Research-Paper-the-Challenges-of-Handling-Proverbs-in-Malay-English-Machine-Translation Khirulnizam Abd Rahman, Faculty of Information Science & Technology, KUIS Abstract: Proverb is a unique feature of Malay language in which a message or advice is not communicated indirectly through metaphoric phrases.
