Abstract
Techniques for assisting in translation are provided. A speech recognition hypothesis is obtained, corresponding to a source language utterance. Information retrieval is performed on a supplemental database, based on a situational context, to obtain at least one word string that is related to the source language utterance. The speech recognition hypothesis and the word string are then formatted for display to a user, to facilitate an appropriate selection by the user for translation.
