1. A computer-implemented method for generating examples for electronic dictionaries to serve as an aid to translation between languages performed by one or more processors, the method comprising: creating an electronic dictionary example by: acquiring at least one dictionary entry comprising a headword W j in a source language and at least one translation T j1 , T j2 , . . . T jn for the headword W j in a target language; generating a first set comprising possible forms for the headword W j in the source language and a second set comprising possible forms for each translation T j1 , T j2 , . . . T jn in the target language; searching a corpus of translations, where the corpus of translations is a preexisting corpus of translation sentence pairs, each translation sentence pair comprising a first sentence in the source language and a second sentence in the target language, where the first sentence is a translation of the second sentence, and the searching includes searching at least one first sentence in the source language included in the corpus of translations and searching at least one second sentence in the target language in the corpus of translations; identifying in the corpus of translations at least one translation sentence pair, from either the searching of the at least one first sentence in the source language or the searching of the at least one second sentence in the target language, that consists of the first sentence that incorporates the headword W j , or one of its generated forms, and the second sentence that incorporates the translation T jn or one of its generated forms; and providing the at least one translation sentence pair to a user.

The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising, in the case of there being a plurality of translation sentence pairs, performing a selection operation to select translation sentence pairs for providing to the user.
