1，Categorize paginated documents. [launch codename "Xirtam3", project codename
"CategorizePaginatedDocuments"] Sometimes, search results can be dominated bydocuments from a paginated
series. This change helps surface more diverse results in such cases.
1，對於頁碼性文檔的歸類。
某些時候，搜索結果會有很多由一系列頁碼產生的文檔構成。此項改變將使得這種情況下，有更深層次的結果能顯
: p% I$ D# G& s6 }現。（註：頁碼性文檔，我的理解是，例如，某個文章比較長，分成幾個頁面顯示，就會產生很多類似的url，唯
" M6 O( p6 P6 O" @8 c4 [一的區別就是頁碼不同，而這次的這項改動，google將會對有頁碼相關性的頁面有更好的理解）

: z. i9 T- U7 \8 t7 JMore language-relevant navigational results. [launch codename "Raquel"] For navigational searches when
+ O  @2 p$ T7 w# W( j$ D: fthe user types in a web address, such as [bol.com], we generally try to rank that web address at the top. However,
. N) j* r( H5 g" x6 ^this isn』t always the best answer. For example, bol.com is a Dutch page, but many users are actually searching in
Portuguese and are looking for the Brazilian email service, http://www.bol.uol.com.br/. This change takes into
# t7 a6 T7 G' V, U/ D9 r9 {0 Z) Kaccount language to help return the most relevant navigational results.
3 n5 C5 \0 G, K0 P, m! ^: l' q& }2，對於導航性結果將更多考慮相關的語言結果。
對於導航性搜索，例如用戶在地址欄中輸入【bol.com】，我們一般會嘗試將那個網址顯示在頂部。然而，這並不
$ j* ^0 \; r$ ]/ G# ]總是能呈現最好的答案。例如，bol.com是荷蘭文頁面，但多數用戶實際是以葡萄牙語搜索的，尋找的是巴西的郵
件服務-http://www.bol.uol.com.br/。這次的改變，將把語言相關也考慮進去，從而能返回最相關的導航性結果。

+ w$ f, l0 @0 z  w3 Y  Country identification for webpages. [launch codename "sudoku"] Location is an important signal we use
to surface content more relevant to a particular country. For a while we』ve had systems designed to detect
* a! t& I# T, l; N/ swhen a website, subdomain, or directory is relevant to a set of countries. This change extends the
granularity of those systems to the page level for sites that host user generated content, meaning that some
) I: }# x1 W' d! M6 r7 F: Bpages on a particular site can be considered relevant to France, while others might be considered relevant
to Spain.
+ v. M+ Y& o+ k4 W% h3，對於頁面歸屬國家的辨認。
. J7 w# f  r- O3 d' t4 ~) z地理位置是我們用來判斷對於一個特定國家內容顯示的一個重要信號。我們曾有過一些系統來辨認是否一個網站，
0 }1 |+ K5 M1 `, O低級域名或目錄是否相關一系列國家。本次改變進一步細化了這些系統，達到了網站的用戶生成內容的頁面級別。
即，在特定網站內，有些頁面將被認為與法國更相關，而另外一些則被認為和西班牙更相關。

7，改進了本地導航類搜索的結果。
對於搜索中包含本地詞彙，如[dunston mint seattle]  或[Vaso Azzurro Restaurant 94043]，我們會更加傾向於把當
地導航性主頁放到結果頂部位置，及時當此導航性頁面並未涉及地域。

  Improvements to how search terms are scored in ranking. [launch codename "Bi02sw41"] One of the
# ~# M$ F% I7 D2 |most fundamental signals used in search is whether and how your search terms appear on the pages you』re

that text is particularly relevant.
10，在snippets頁面開始處顯示更多文字。

We want to help you find the freshest results, particularly for searches with important new web content, such
as breaking news topics. We try to promote content that appears to be fresh. This change applies a more
granular classifier, leading to more nuanced changes in ranking based on freshness.

: B4 A* m4 f, c14，對於即時預覽功能觸發行為的減弱。
此項更新對即時預覽區域的觸發區域進行縮減，現在，只有當您把鼠標放到搜索結果右側的圖標上並停一會兒，您
才能看到即時預覽結果。

  Sunrise and sunset search feature internationalization. [project codename "sunrise-i18n"] We』ve
internationalized the sunrise and sunset search feature to 33 new languages, so now you can more easily
plan an evening jog before dusk or set your alarm clock to watch the sunrise with a friend.  
& u( a# z) Q$ G6 s% |; G: W# Q( \% X. C4 L15，國際性日出日落搜索功能。此項更新國際化了日出日落功能到33個新語言，現在您可以更容易的計劃黃昏前

0 e2 E& N1 A) j4 cgenerally try to cluster articles about the same story into groups. This change improves clustering in Serbian
by better grouping articles written in Cyrillic and Latin. We also improved our use of 「stemming」 -- a
technique that relies on the 「stem」 or root of a word.
17，對於塞爾維亞語新聞簇的改進。

8 ]2 c% Q* s2 f
  Adding Japanese and Korean to error page classifier. [launch codename "maniac4jars", project
codename "Soft404"] We have signals designed to detect crypto 404 pages (also known as 「soft 404s」),
pages that return valid text to a browser, but the text only contains error messages, such as 「Page not
  ?+ ^, ~3 \  Z/ [8 G( f+ D6 efound.」 It』s rare that a user will be looking for such a page, so it』s important we be able to detect them. This
change extends a particular classifier to Japanese and Korean.
4 o" ~# D. G8 V* I, u) {' ]23，錯誤頁面整合器增加日語和韓語。對相關網站，404頁面將會顯示日語和韓語。

  More efficient generation of alternative titles. [launch codename "HalfMarathon"] We use a variety of
signals to generate titles in search results. This change makes the process more efficient, saving
& ]' o: B" }' _2 dtremendous CPU resources without degrading quality.

9 Y" ^4 {0 t( p' L3 I7 Y. [25，更簡潔和(或)更有提示性的標題。
         我們將為展示一個搜索結果的標題考慮更多因素。這意味著，您將在搜索相同信息時，發現更有提示性或更
簡潔的標題。

  Fewer bad spell corrections internationally. [launch codename "Potage", project codename "Spelling"]
0 J, x2 S- k. L: Y1 i) j" HWhen you search for [mango tea], we don't want to show spelling predictions like 「Did you mean 'mint tea'?」
$ Y8 ^: B  x1 c7 F/ NWe have algorithms designed to prevent these 「bad spell corrections」 and this change internationalizes one
of those algorithms.
26，國際範圍內糟糕的拼寫改正將更少。
當您搜索例如【mango tea】,  我們將不再給出像「Did you mean mint tea?」這樣的拼寫預測。我們調整了
相關算法來阻止出現這種「糟糕的拼寫改正」，並使之國際範圍內均有效。
  a- Y/ t3 n' ~8 ^- I$ R: C5 U9 `9 H
  More spelling corrections globally and in more languages. [launch codename "pita", project codename
"Autocomplete"] Sometimes autocomplete will correct your spelling before you』ve finished typing. We』ve
been offering advanced spelling corrections in English, and recently we extended the comprehensiveness
of this feature to cover more than 60 languages.
27，全球範圍的拼寫改正將更多，支持更多語言。

  S5 R' t0 @' F) s+ N) z2 [+ U. u+ Z  More spell corrections for long queries. [launch codename "caterpillar_new", project codename
"Spelling"] We rolled out a change making it more likely that your query will get a spell correction even if it』s
longer than ten terms. You can watch uncut footage of when we decided to launch this from our past blog
post.
28，對於較長搜索請求的拼寫改正將更多。

  More comprehensive triggering of 「showing results for」 goes international. [launch codename
"ifprdym", project codename "Spelling"] In some cases when you』ve misspelled a search, say [pnumatic],
the results you find will actually be results for the corrected query, 「pneumatic.」 In the past, we haven』t
9 n; O0 Q$ Y' V( qalways provided the explicit user interface to say, 「Showing results for pneumatic」 and the option to 「Search
1 I) V% m+ [" [. R+ q" I: \- k/ linstead for pnumatic.」 We recently started showing the explicit 「Showing results for」 interface more often in
% }. o9 w) ]( u; e& x$ ^these cases in English, and now we』re expanding that to new languages.
29，全球範圍內的「showing results for」觸發因素更理性化。
      有時，您打錯了一個單詞在搜索框，例如[pnumatic]，那麼顯示的結果將是被改正的搜索結果—[pneumatic]。
過去，我們並不總是給用戶明確的提示界面，例如：「Showing results for pneumatic」 以及可選項 「Search instead
% T+ G7 \' F& _for pnumatic.」，現在我們已經加強了更明確的提示並使之拓展到新的語言。

  「Did you mean」 suppression goes international. [launch codename "idymsup", project codename
! ~; T8 s& P. k"Spelling"] Sometimes the 「Did you mean?」 spelling feature predicts spelling corrections that are accurate,
but wouldn』t actually be helpful if clicked. For example, the results for the predicted correction of your search
may be nearly identical to the results for your original search. In these cases, inviting you to refine your
search isn』t helpful. This change first checks a spell prediction to see if it』s useful before presenting it to the
user. This algorithm was already rolled out in English, but now we』ve expanded to new languages.  
30，「Did you mean」擴展至更多語言。 （即，原先的詞語更正提示，現在已經擴展至更多語言）

  Spelling model refresh and quality improvements. We』ve refreshed spelling models and launched
quality improvements in 27 languages.
31，對於拼寫模塊的刷新及質量的提高。

  Fewer autocomplete predictions leading to low-quality results. [launch codename "Queens5", project

change increases the number of documents served by that index by 15%. *Note: We』re constantly tuning
the size of our different indexes and changes may not always appear in these blog posts.
% W( K0 p  A8 v3 ~" e36，增加了15%的基礎索引。

used in general ranking.
) R- O0 ]7 `4 z# o2 r40，對於擴展鏈接的更好的排序。
  Sitelinks data refresh. [launch codename "Saralee-76"] Sitelinks (the links that appear beneath some
/ H" l7 d$ V% p" Osearch results and link deeper into the site) are generated in part by an offline process that analyzes site
structure and other data to determine the most relevant links to show users. We』ve recently updated the
