Mathematica 8 pioneers free-form linguistic input, allowing users to enter plain English and get immediate results and the Mathematica input for further exploration—without the need for syntax. It is a breakthrough in usability that makes many programming and development tasks as easy as entering a query in English.

Mathematica 8 is the start of this initiative—ongoing improvements to the Wolfram|Alpha technology powering this feature will continue to advance Mathematica's ease of use, independent of product releases.
