Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and method for information conversion that facilitates exchange of many digital information data between wireless communication units in order to aid communication between users understanding different languages. SOLUTION: This invention provides a system and a method for information conversion employing wireless communication units. The communication unit allows a user to enter data in its mother language. The communication unit converts an entry request into a markup language. The communication unit transmits a markup language expressing a property of a request and a mother language of the user of the communication unit to a 2nd communication unit via a wireless link. The 2nd communication unit receives the request and returns a reply in a mother language instructed by the user of the 1st communication unit or in the markup language. The personal communication unit receives the reply and displays the reply in the mother language of the original user.
