Abstract

A translation database (23) is used to allow an administrator to use a foreign language to administer, in real time, a switching system (10) whose administration database (11) is constructed from forms, files, and other administration patterns expressed in a native language and that stores administration data also expressed in the native language. The translation database is constructed from equivalents of the administration patterns that are expressed in the foreign language. The translation database is devoid of the administration data, but includes information that is enterable by the administrator as administration data, expressed in both the native language and the foreign language. All communications exchanged between the administration database and the administrator are translated by the administration terminal (20) through the translation database, such that all interaction with the administrator is effected in the foreign language yet all interaction with the administration database is effected in the native language.
