Hindi Language Graphical User Interface to Database Management System

Database management systems have been widely used for storing and retrieving data. However, databases are hard to use since their interface is rigid in cooperating with users. Large number of e-governance applications like weather forecasting, agriculture, banking, railways etc. use database. For the people who are comfortable with Hindi language require these applications to accept a Hindi sentence as a query, process it and after execution provide result to the user in Hindi language. In this paper, we discuss the architecture of system to convert a Hindi sentence into equivalent SQL query. To make data retrieval easy for common person, in the developed system, the user can input query in Hindi language and get the result in same language. The users have no need to learn any formal query language like SQL to access the database.
