Abstract

In this paper, we present machine translation importance and the need of a linguistic treatment for the transfer based approach, then we present our method in analysis and generation based on linguistic features of Arabic word, dealing with scheme concept; to extract morphological information, these information is very useful in tree generation and structural transfer.
