Excerpt
Excerpt Abstract: An improved method, apparatus, and computer instructions displaying search results. A query is received in a first language. A snippet in the document containing the word is selected in response to identifying a document in a second language in which the document contains a word matching a query word in the query. This snippet is translated into the first language.
Summary of the Invention: The present invention recognizes that presenting results that are meaningful to an English speaking user, who may have only limited reading knowledge of French or no knowledge at all, is a principal challenge in designing a cross-language search system. Thus, it would be advantageous to have an improved method, apparatus, and computer instructions for presenting results for documents in one language suitable for a user with no knowledge of that language. For example, an improved system for presenting documents in French to a user who speaks English in a manner that allows that user to comprehend and use those results is provided by an illustrative embodiment.
The present invention provides an improved method, apparatus, and computer instructions displaying search results. A query is received in a first language. A snippet in the document containing the word is selected in response to identifying a document in a second language in which the document contains a word matching a query word in the query. This snippet is translated into the first language.
