Definitions

• social networking system refers to a system that supports or enables online communication, input, interaction, content-sharing, and collaboration between users.
• a user of the social networking system can have one or more "friends” via the social networking system.
• the term “friend” refers to a co-user associated with a user via the social networking system (i.e., a contact or connection).
• FIG. 2 illustrates a schematic diagram illustrating an example embodiment of the translation system 106.
• the translation system 106 can include various components for performing the processes and features described herein.
• the translation system 106 may include, but is not limited to, a communication handler 202, a translation manager 204, an electronic message delivery manager 206, and a data storage 208.
• the data storage 208 can store user profile data 210, user social networking activity data 212, translation rating data 214, and electronic message data 216.
• any of the components 202-216 may be combined into fewer components, such as into a single facility or module, or divided into more components as may serve one or more embodiments.
• the translation system 106 may base the translation on a language spoken by a potential electronic message recipient who has a high relationship coefficient with the electronic message sender. In additional or alternative embodiments, the translation system 106 may provide multiple translations of an electronic message based on languages spoken by all potential recipients who have a relationship coefficient with the electronic message sender that is within a predetermined threshold.
• the translation system 106 may determine to translate the electronic message into a given language in light of a language analysis based on information associated with a majority of foreign language speakers among the co-users associated with the message sender via the social networking system 104. Alternatively or additionally, the translation system 106 may determine to translate the electronic message into every language represented among the message sender's social networking system "friends" in light of a language analysis based on information associated with all the co-users associated with the message sender via the social networking system 104. In one or more embodiments, the message sender may configure the translation system 106 such that the translation system 106 performs auto-translate features in accordance with the message sender's desires.
• the method 600 can include an act 640 of determining whether to provide the first version or the second version of the electronic message.
• the act 640 can involve determining, based on the identified social networking information associated with the recipient, whether to provide the first version of the electronic message or the second version of the electronic message to the recipient.
• Computer-readable media can be any available media that can be accessed by a general purpose or special purpose computer system.
• Computer-readable media that store computer-executable instructions are non-transitory computer-readable storage media (devices).
• Computer-readable media that carry computer- executable instructions are transmission media.
• embodiments of the disclosure can comprise at least two distinctly different kinds of computer-readable media: non- transitory computer-readable storage media (devices) and transmission media.
• a "network” is defined as one or more data links that enable the transport of electronic data between computer systems and/or modules and/or other electronic devices.
• a network or another communications connection can include a network and/ or data links which can be used to carry desired program code means in the form of computer-executable instructions or data structures and which can be accessed by a general purpose or special purpose computer. Combinations of the above should also be included within the scope of computer-readable media.
• this ROM may be mask programmed ROM, programmable ROM (PROM), erasable PROM (EPROM), electrically erasable PROM (EEPROM), electrically alterable ROM (EAROM), or flash memory or a combination of two or more of these.
• a user can access the page using a web browser hosted by the user's client device and select a selectable option or selectable element, causing the client device to transmit to the social-networking system a request to create an edge between a user node of the user and a concept node of the concept, indicating a relationship between the user and the concept (e.g., the user checks in a restaurant, or the user "likes" a celebrity).
• a concept node 1004 may represent a third-party webpage or resource hosted by a third-party system 908.
• the third-party webpage or resource may include, among other elements, content, a selectable or other icon, or other inter-actable object (which may be implemented, for example, in JavaScript, AJAX, or PHP codes) representing an action or activity.
• a third-party webpage may include a selectable icon such as "like,” “check in,” “eat,” “recommend,” or another suitable action or activity.
• a user may interact with an advertisement in any suitable manner.
• the user may click or otherwise select the advertisement.
• the user may be directed to (or a browser or other application being used by the user) a page associated with the advertisement.
• the user may take additional actions, such as purchasing a product or service associated with the advertisement, receiving information associated with the advertisement, or subscribing to a newsletter associated with the advertisement.
• An advertisement with audio or video may be played by selecting a component of the advertisement (like a "play button").
• social- networking system 902 may execute or modify a particular action of the user.
• An advertisement may also include social-networking-system functionality that a user may interact with.
• an advertisement may enable a user to "like" or otherwise endorse the advertisement by selecting an icon or link associated with endorsement.
• an advertisement may enable a user to search (e.g., by executing a query) for content related to the advertiser.
• a user may share the advertisement with another user (e.g., through social-networking system 902) or RSVP (e.g., through social-networking system 902) to an event associated with the advertisement.
• an advertisement may include social- networking-system context directed to the user.
• an advertisement may display information about a friend of the user within social-networking system 902 who has taken an action associated with the subject matter of the advertisement.
