Base Claim:
1. For facilitating subsequent translation of words in a target polysynthetic language to or from a user language, a method of generating a language parsing reference database, assisted by a computer having a processor, said method comprising: organizing the parsing reference database to include polysynthetic word parts WHO, WHAT, HOW and WHEN; finding exemplars of polysynthetic words of the target polysynthetic language expressed in a selected system of orthography; providing as input to a deconstructor, as exemplars, a plurality of words in the polysynthetic language where WHO is doing an action is known in the user language; employing the deconstructor to determine a character string common to the plurality of polysynthetic words as a likely character string in the target polysynthetic language for the known WHO in the user language, and storing the character string in the target polysynthetic language with the user language equivalent as a pair in the WHO part of the parsing reference database; identifying, in the target polysynthetic language, categories of WHEN an action is happening; for each of the categories of WHEN, finding, as exemplars, a plurality of words in the polysynthetic language, providing, as input to the deconstructor, the plurality of words in the polysynthetic language along with respective equivalents in the user language, and employing the deconstructor to determine a character string common to the plurality of polysynthetic words as a likely character string in the target polysynthetic language for the particular category of WHEN, and storing the character string in the target polysynthetic language with the user language equivalent as a pair in the WHEN part of the parsing reference database; identifying, in the target polysynthetic language, category sets of HOW an action is happening combined with WHEN the action is happening as WHEN/HOW category sets; for each WHEN/HOW category set, finding, as exemplars, a plurality of words in the polysynthetic language, providing, as input to the deconstructor, the plurality of words in the polysynthetic language along with respective equivalents in the user language, and employing the deconstructor to determine a character string common to the plurality of polysynthetic words as a likely character string in the target polysynthetic language for the particular WHEN/HOW category set, presenting to a user for confirmation, storing the character string in the target polysynthetic language with the user language equivalent as a paired sequence, and then subtracting the previously-identified WHEN for the category to determine HOW for that category of WHEN/HOW, and storing in the parsing reference database; and determining additional components in the target polysynthetic language other than a WHAT action is being done component, removing those additional components from a polysynthetic word to find WHAT action is being done, and then storing the resultant character string with its user language equivalent as a pair in the parsing reference database.

Claim 2:
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein said steps of employing the deconstructor further comprise, after determining a character string common to the plurality of polysynthetic words as a likely character string in the target polysynthetic language, presenting the character string to a user for confirmation.
