User-specific queries for items may be collected from a search engine in language A and corresponding behavioral data with respect to items returned for the queries, such as items viewed, watched, liked, clicked, and bought by the user may also be collected. Similar data may be gathered for user specific queries from a search engine in language B. For query pairs, each in a different language, the system may measure the similarity of their user behavioral data using language independent features such as images, UPC codes, price, seller, category, and the like, and using translated features such as descriptors that comprise keywords that describe the items returned in response to the queries. Those pairs of queries in the two languages with high similarity of user behavior are statistically translations of each other. |

1. A method of translating queries comprising:
collecting query data in a first language, the query data in the first language comprising queries for items and user behavioral data with respect to items returned in response to the queries; collecting query data in a second language, the query data in the second language comprising queries in the second language for items and user behavioral data with respect to items returned in response to the queries in the second language; for query data pairs comprising query data in the first language and query data in the second language, measuring, by at least one computer processor, the similarity of the user behavioral data of the respective query data of the query data pairs; determining respective pairs of queries in the first language and queries in the second language that have high similarity of user behavioral data to each other; and using the determined respective pairs of queries as statistical translations of each other. |
