To increase the accessibility and usability
of online language services, this talk proposes the language grid to create
composite language services for various intercultural collaborative works.
The language grid is called "horizontal," when the grid connects the
standard languages, or "vertical," when the grid combines the language
services generated by communities. Even though language resources
will become easy to use, we still lack a complete understanding
of how machine translation
affects collaboration. Using a machine translation embedded chat system,
we investigated eight pairs from three different language
communities, China, Korea, and Japan, working on referential tasks in their
shared second language (English) and in their native languages.
The result reveals further research issues on machine translation mediated
collaboration.</td></tr>
