Abstract
Machine translation is used to leverage the semantic properties (e.g., intent) already known for one natural language for use in another natural language. In a first embodiment, the corpus of a first language is translated to each other language of interest using machine translation, and the corresponding semantic properties are transferred to the translated corpuses. Semantic models can then be generated from the translated corpuses and the transferred semantic properties. In a second embodiment, given a first language for which there is a semantic model, if a query is received in a second, different language lacking its own semantic model, machine translation is used to translate the query into the first language. Then, the semantic model for the first language is applied to the translated query, thereby obtaining the semantic properties for the query, even though no semantic model existed for the language in which the query was specified.
