From seeking the results for last night's cricket match or locating a late- night ¡®dhaba¡¯ nearby, to discovering a host of weekend getaways; the results of ¡®How to¡¯, ¡®What is¡¯ and ¡®Where is¡¯ have all been possible with Google Search. Let¡¯s look a little deeper, and check out the many Search features and capabilities that many might not be aware of.

1. Access the world¡¯s content in the language you love: Everyone loves to be able to find or read content in their own language. The multiple language options within Search will make it easy to get quality results and translations of everything, from song lyrics to news articles to cricket discussions. Simply pick your native language from one of the nine Indian languages at the bottom of the Google Search home page.

2. Type less, talk more: Typing on your phone can be slow and cumbersome (and you might walk into a street pole!). So, avoid that fiddle with a tiny keyboard and simply talk to your phone to search for anything across the globe. For instance, if you¡¯re on the road to Kolkata looking for North Indian food, you can just ask for ¡°tandoori cuisine¡± and choose among the wide range of restaurants near you. Tap the microphone icon to the right of the search field and speak your query!
