Abstract:  A system and method for presenting a simultaneous, overlapping display of a coded message and its translation as a single, integrated graphic presentation in any visual medium, that provides quick and full comprehension. It may be used advantageously, for example, to provide an immediate translation of telephone numbers displayed as letters or words in advertising, wherein the letters correspond to numerals found on a telephone keypad or rotary dial.
