Tigris and Euphrates: A comparison between human and machine translation

Everything symbolized by a set of symbols constitutes the domain of symbolization of the set. The ultimate elements of the domain which symbolize nothing further are designated the terminal ind1catum. Most domains of symbolization comprise mediate symbols which are both symbolized by other symbols and themselves indicate further symbols. Mental concepts are treated as symbols. In translation, a set of symbols is transformed to another set in another language, the two sets having terminal indicata that only differ within narrow limits.
