Abstract
A computer implemented method, a program, and a system for effectively providing versatile non-text information suitable for use in a multi-language environment. The method includes the steps of: receiving search results of a database using a search criterion in a certain language and a search criterion in another language corresponding to the search criterion in which specific language attributes are associated with non-text elements that are included in the search results; scoring the non-text elements included in the search results depending on a similarity to another element with which a different language attribute is associated; and identifying at least one of the non-text elements included in the search results on the basis of the scores.
