FRONT END TRANSLATION MECHANISM FOR RECEIVED COMMUNICATION

A method for allowing recipient translation of information received by a data processing system configured with a user interface having in a human language which is different from the human language of the transmitted information. A desired human language for user interface with resident software applications on said data processing system is first selected. Then incoming communications to the data processing system which involves transmission of human language-based ad information are intercepted and analyzed to determine if it is in a different human language than the desired human language. When the human language of the incoming communication differs from the desired human language, the human language of the incoming communication is dynamically translated into the desired human language. Finally, the translated incoming communication is transmitted in the desired human language to an output device of the data processing system.
