Abstract

A computer receives a short phrase. The short phrase is transmitted in a query to a search engine. The computer receives one or more search results from the search engine in response to the query, and parses one or more longer phrases that include the short phrase from each of the one or more search results. The computer transmits the one or more longer phrases to a language identification engine for identification of the language of the one or more longer phrases, and receives from the language identification engine the language of each of the one or more the longer phrases. The computer then determines the most likely language of the short phrase, based at least in part on the language of each of the one or more the longer phrases.
