"""Bing (Web)
"""This is the implementation of the Bing-WEB engine. Some of this
implementations are shared by other engines:
- :ref:`bing images engine`
- :ref:`bing news engine`
- :ref:`bing videos engine`
On the `preference page`_ Bing offers a lot of languages an regions (see section
'Search results languages' and 'Country/region'). However, the abundant choice
does not correspond to reality, where Bing has a full-text indexer only for a
limited number of languages. By example: you can select a language like Māori
but you never get a result in this language.
What comes a bit closer to the truth are the `search-APIs`_ but they don`t seem
to be completely correct either (if you take a closer look you will find some
inaccuracies there too):

- :py:obj:`searx.engines.bing_videos.bing_traits_url`
- :py:obj:`searx.engines.bing_images.bing_traits_url`
- :py:obj:`searx.engines.bing_news.bing_traits_url`
