Syntagms of a text including individual elements written without separators are segmented into chunks having strings including at least one individual element, such as an ideogram of the Mandarin Chinese language. A lexicon is defined including a set of strings, each string having at least one of the individual elements. The syntagm, being segmented, is orderly searched on an element-by-element basis by searching within the lexicon strings corresponding to any of the chunks.
