It has become a pronounced problem due to the increasing ubiquity of online platforms that provide a means to conduct it. A significant amount of this cyberbullying is conducted by and targets teenagers. It is difficult for teenage students to shut themselves off from the digital world in which the cyberbullying is taking place. Given how entrenched the use of digital apps is by today's youth, and the pronounced consequences of it - including victim self-harm, in some cases - cyberbullying is at least as much of a threat as physical bullying. Additionally, because of the obfuscation caused by the online environment, authorities (such as parents, teachers and law enforcement) may have difficulty determining what has occurred and who the actors participating are.

Translation automation mechanisms and tools have been developed for several years to bring people who speak different languages together. A "new search only approach to machine translation" was adopted to tackle some of the slowness and inaccuracy of the other technologies. The idea is to develop a solution that, by indexing an incremental set of words that combine a certain semantic meaning, makes it possible to create a process of correspondence between their native language record and the language of translation. This research principle assumes that the vocabulary used in a given type of publication/document is relatively limited in terms of language style and word diversity, which enhances the greater effect of instantaneously and rigor in the translation process through the indexing process. A volume of electronic text documents where processed and loaded into a database, and analyzed and measured in order confirm the previous premise. Although the observed and projected metric values did not give encouraging results, it was possible to develop and make available a translation tool using this approach.
