Abstract: A method for presenting a sound, a non-transitory recording medium, a sound presentation system, and a terminal apparatus capable of improving the comfort of a user are provided. A communication unit obtains an announcement sound announced from an utterer to a user in an airplane and a degree of importance of the announcement sound. Next, an in-flight broadcasting priority control unit determines, on the basis of the obtained degree of importance, whether to present the announcement sound to the user. If the in-flight broadcasting priority control unit determines that the announcement sound is to be presented to the user, an in-flight broadcasting control unit transmits the announcement sound to an entertainment terminal used by the user.

Abstract: There are included an input unit for inputting an input sentence, and an output unit for outputting an output sentence obtained by translating the input sentence into a translation language. The translation language is set based on located language information and position information of a translation device. The located language information includes a predetermined location of each of a plurality of speakers and a used language of each of the plurality of speakers. Accordingly, the translation language, which is a translation target, may be set from a plurality of languages while reducing the operation burden on a user.
