Taking advantage of existing bilingual dictionaries and a third language can construct a new bilingual dictionary. However, the access of some existing bilingual dictionaries is difficult, which makes it impossible to construct a new bilingual dictionary. For solving the problem, the paper proposes a method that we can construct the bilingual dictionaries of the source language and the target language with a third language by using the corresponding comparable corpora, respectively. The proposed method is applicable to the languages which are lack of comparable corpora and the available dictionaries, such as Chinese and Swedish. This paper constructs a Chinese-Swedish bilingual dictionary by using English as a third language to prove the validity of the proposed method. The result of experiment shows that the proposed method has a good performance in the construction of the Chinese-Swedish bilingual dictionary.
