Launching Google Suggest in Swahili

Posted on 00:31 by Unknown
En Français
Swahili

Since the launch of Google Suggest last August, you may already be used to the magic feeling of getting real-time suggestions just after typing a few keystrokes — that is, if you're searching in languages such as English, French, Portuguese or Amharic. Today we have added full support for Swahili - on our domains in Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi and DR Congo. We find that by providing suggestions upfront, we can help people search more efficiently and conveniently. Google Suggest can help simplify your searching: it helps formulate queries, reduce spelling errors and save keystrokes. The Google Suggest feature originally started as a 20% project in 2004, and we are thrilled to now have Suggest in Swahili.

Lancement de Google Suggest en Swahili

Depuis le lancement de Google Suggest en août dernier, vous êtes peut-être déjà habitué à la magie des suggestions de recherche en temps réel juste après avoir tapé quelques caractères - cela fonctionne si vous cherchez dans des langues comme l'anglais, le français, le portugais, ou l'amharique. Aujourd'hui, nous avons ajouté Google Suggest en swahili pour tous nos domaines situés en Tanzanie, Kenya, Ouganda, Rwanda, Burundi et Congo. Nous pensons qu'en fournissant des suggestions instantanées, nous aidons les utilisateurs à effectuer des recherches plus efficacement. Google Suggest peut aider à simplifier votre recherche : il aide à formuler vos requêtes, réduit les fautes de frappe et économise le nombre de caractères à taper. La fonctionnalité Google Suggest a initialement été un projet 20% débuté en 2004, et nous sommes ravis de désormais avoir Suggest en swahili.

Kuzindua Google Suggest kwa lugha ya Kiswahili

Tangu kuzinduliwa kwa Google Suggest Mwezi Agosti, wengi wamefurahia urahisi wa kupata vidokezi vya maneno papo hapo, kabla ya kuendeleza neno lote - iwapo wakitumia lugha ya kiingereza, kifaransa au Amharic.

Leo, tumekamilisha nguzo zitazowezesha vidokezi vya kiswahili kwenye Google Suggest - katika maeneo ya Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi na DR Congo. Tumeona ya kuwa kidokezi ni kifaa cha utafiti wepesi. Google Suggest yaweza kurahisisha utafiti wako: vidokezi vitakusaidia kutunga wazo, kupunguza dosari katika uendelezaji wa maneno, hata kutopoteza wakati. Mwanzoni, Google Suggest ilanzaishwa kama mradi wa 20% mwaka wa 2004, na sasa tunahisi furaha tele kuzindua Suggest kwa lugha ya kiswahili.
