| Abstract: | This research paper presents a rule-based approach to natural language translation from English to Nupe, a minority language spoken in middle belt region, of Nigeria. The system aims to address the translation needs of Nupe speakers by automatically translating basic English sentences into Nupe. Description, design and implementation of the rule-based translation system was carried out by focusing on the linguistic rules and strategies used to handle the translation process. Evaluation of the system's performance using a set of test sentences was carried out and compared with the existing machine translation systems. The results demonstrated the feasibility and effectiveness of the rule-based approach for translating between English to Nupe language, highlighting its potential for practical applications in facilitating communication and information access for Nupe speaking communities and its environs. |
