Abstract

Providing incremental search suggestions as a user enters terms in a search query includes determining if a recently entered term is in a context-free dictionary of natural language phrases, generating natural language query search completion candidates corresponding to terms provided by the user in the search query if the recently entered term is in the context free dictionary, determining if the recently entered term contains a keyword hint if the recently entered term is not in the context free dictionary, generating keyword search completion candidates if the recently entered term is at least part of a keyword hint, scoring the candidates from a current iteration and any previous iterations from previously entered terms to provide a set of possible candidates, and ordering the possible candidates based on at least the scoring. Providing incremental search suggestions may also include building compound search queries that include natural language phrases and keywords.
