The disclosure relates to transferred learning from a first language (e.g., a source language for which a semantic parser has been defined) to a second language (e.g., a target language for which a semantic parser has not been defined). A system may use knowledge from a trained model in one language to model another language. For example, the system may transfer knowledge of a semantic parser from a first (e.g., source) language to a second (e.g., target) language. Such transfer of knowledge may occur and be useful when the first language has sufficient training data but the second language has insufficient training data. The foregoing transfer of knowledge may extend the semantic parser for multiple languages (e.g., the first language and the second language).
