Abstract

The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates generating sorted search results for a query. An interface component can receive a query in a first language. A first ranker can be trained from a portion of data related to a second language. A second ranker can correspond to the first language, wherein the second ranker is untrained due to a limited amount of data related to the first language. A sorting component can invoke the first ranker to generate and order a pre-defined number of search results for the received query and subsequently invoke the second ranker to the pre-defined number of search results to generate a re-ordered number of search results in the first language for the received query.
