Abstract
Authors of that paper proposed a prototype machine translator system to translate scientific English sentences into Ara- bic sentences. This system is based on natural language processing and machine learning. This proposed system is ap- plied in statistical field, which is very important on a mathematical sub field in Math department. The system is ana- lyzed, designed and developed. Author tested the proposed system on some statistical statements. It proves its validity as a prototype system.
