Abstract: Systems and processes for multilingual word prediction are provided. In accordance with one example, a method includes, at an electronic device having one or more processors and memory, receiving context information associated with a current word; determining, for each of a plurality of languages, a set of monolingual probabilities based on the context information; determining a set of language weights based on the context information; determining a set of multilingual probabilities based on the respective sets of monolingual probabilities and the set of language weights; and providing a plurality of candidate words based on the set of multilingual probabilities.
