It seeks to retrieve relevant documents in a collection of files written in a different language or languages from users? queries. In other words, the goal of a CLIR system is to link the language boundary by providing access in one language to documents written in another language(s) located in the database. The aim of this research was to develop an automatic cross-lingual information retrieval system that is capable of retrieving relevant information from a set of documents written in English based on the users? queries, written in the Arabic language. This Research used various techniques such as Google Translator API and Vector Space Model.
