| Abstract(in English) | Plain Japanese is simplified Japanese by restriction of words for foreign residents. For an understanding of plain Japanese, a certain level of Japanese skills is required. We think that a native language sentence by machine translation may be easier to understand especially for a Japanese beginner. We investigated the ease of understanding between plain Japanese and machine translation (Chinese, English and Portuguese) at Japanese beginners who are Chinese, English and Portuguese -speaking people, a native language. As a result of experiments, for Japanese beginners, it is about the same or easier as the sentence of plain Japanese to understand the sentence of a machine translation, except the accuracy of machine translation sentence is low (there remained no original meanings.). |
