1. A computer-implemented method of a Short Message Service (SMS) comprising:

  • parsing a Short Message with a server;

    generating a Context Metadata of the Short Message by any set of the following;

    attaching a current Global Positioning System (‘

    GPS’

    ) location of a Mobile Device as the Context Metadata;

    attaching a current timestamp as the Context Metadata;

    attaching an image as the Context Metadata;

    attaching a file as the Context Metadata;

    attaching a referent to a prior Short Message as the Context Metadata;

    explicitly associating the Context Metadata to the Short Message;

    wherein a Server includes a Cultural Database containing the prior Short Message including a token and a word structure pattern, and the step of processing the Short Message through the Server further comprises;

    comparing each indeterminate token in the Short Message against the tokens contained in the Cultural Database to find a match according to a specified threshold;

    comparing the word structure pattern of the Short Message against the word structure patterns contained in the Cultural Database to find the match according to the specified threshold; and

    ,using the match according to a specified threshold of each indeterminate token and word structure pattern of the Short Message to establish a translation linkage between the Short Message and Context Metadata;

    incorporating into the Short Message a recoverable form of at least one of an explicit trace of a translation linkage, an ordered listing of alternative linkages, an association-strength measurement of the translation linkage between the Context Metadata and the Short Message and a query-for-accuracy value of a linkage; and

    incorporating to the Short Message in a recoverable form upon request, of at least one of the explicit trace of the translation linkage, an ordered listing of alternative linkages, the association-strength measurement of the translation linkage, and the query-for-accuracy value of the linkage.
