Paragraph Number

75

In one configuration, the language assistant 414 retrieves the description 422 from the appropriate language module 416 and displays the description 422 on the television 104 (or other display device) in close proximity to the icon 404. The icon 404 and description 422 may be superimposed over the displayed programming 409 using a semitransparent graphical overlay. This prevents the icon 404 and/or description 422 from obscuring the programming 409. The icon display module 410 and language assistant 414 may include, or be in communication with, the A/V controller 308 of FIG. 3 in order to combine the display of the icon 404 and description 422 with the programming 409 using conventional techniques.
