Cross-language Search: What is it all about?What is CLIR?

Cross-Language Information Retrieval (CLIR) : This is the technique used to retrieve the information stored in different languages. We all are aware of the Google's translation services, Google is now working on CLIR to translate search queries to other languages and back again for the results.

How it Helps?
It helps to break the language barrier by finding anything in any language.And also it helps to digitize the old manuscripts and helps people find the information from old books written in forgotten languages.
