Google launches knowledge graph in Bengali language
New Delhi/ Kolkata, Mar 29 (NITN): Aimed at helping Bengali speakers discover new information quickly, Google on Wednesday announced the introduction of Knowledge Graph in Bengali language on Google Search.

In addition, Google Search will now also support spell correction for Bengali queries improving the Search experience for the millions of Bengali speakers around the world.

The Knowledge Graph enables users to search for things, people or places that Google knows about—landmarks, celebrities, cities, sports teams, buildings, geographical features, movies, celestial objects, works of art and more.


"The feature allows users to get straight to the answer and not trillions of webpages to scroll through. Starting today, when you search for cricket legend Sourav Ganguly in Bengali, Google Search will show you things, not strings – and you’ll instantly get information that’s relevant to your query such as Sourav’s date of birth, his number as an active cricket player, or links to his profile on social media in Bengali," read a statement issued by Google India.
