Embodiment Construction

[0020] As previously mentioned, conventional language translation techniques involve the user cutting and pasting selected words into a search or translation application, thereby losing any contextual information for the selected words. For example, the word "bear" has several meanings in English. The word "bear" in English can mean an animal as a noun, and can mean several verb forms: carry, support, and turn or veer (in direction). Because there is no contextual information, these conventional techniques typically present translations for these forms of the word "bear" in terms of frequency of use. Thus, even though the context for selecting the word "bear" is "carry", the user may still be provided with a translation list starting with the translation of the animal / noun form of "bear". The user must then search through all possible translations of this and try to discern the context. This process is difficult and time consuming for the user.

Abstract

Computer-implemented techniques can include receiving a selected word in a source language, obtaining one or more parts of speech for the selected word, and for each of the one or more parts-of-speech, obtaining candidate translations of the selected word to a different target language, each candidate translation corresponding to a particular semantic meaning of the selected word. The techniques can include for each semantic meaning of the selected word: obtaining an image corresponding to the semantic meaning of the selected word, and compiling translation information including (i) the semantic meaning, (ii) a corresponding part-of-speech, (iii) the image, and (iv) at least one corresponding candidate translation. The techniques can also include outputting the translation information.
