INPUT METHOD EDITOR FOR INPUTTING NAMES OF GEOGRAPHIC LOCATIONS

摘要

A computer-implemented method can include receiving, at a computing device having one or more processors, a user input in a first writing system. The method can include determining one or more candidates based on the user input that correspond to the user input represented in a second writing system different than the first writing system. The method can include determining whether at least one of the candidates corresponds to a proper name of a geographic location and, when at least one of the candidates corresponds to the proper name of the geographic location, determining a local name of the geographic location. The local name can be the proper name of the geographic location in a local language associated with the geographic location. The method can include augmenting the one or more candidates to include the local name to obtain an augmented candidate list, and outputting the augmented candidate list.
