Linguos now supports cross-language search based on transcription. You can enter text in most of the supported languages and retrieve results in any other supported language.
For example, you can input a term in the Cyrillic alphabet and retrieve the Hindi equivalent. Or enter a Hindi term and retrieve the Katakana version.
This service is still in early stages of its development. Some obvious limitations include the need for vocalized Arabic and the ability to use Chinese as the target language.
For those of you interested in commercial options, Linguos is available as a library/platform that can be integrated into your own corpora and indexes to enable your own multilingual search/input.
Thank you all for your continued support and feedback.
