Why is it you are interested in machine translation?[edit]
Machine translation is very important area where has not been done enough researches and studies. Especially on native languages of nations with a small population. As a computer scientist i would like to contribute in such important and interesting field
Which of the published tasks are you interested in? What do you plan to do?[edit]
Title: Apertium-tr-ky: New Turkish-Kyrgyz language pair.
Reasons why Google and Apertium should sponsor it[edit]
In almost all machine translation projects the Turkic languages are very poorly developed, some languages are not developed at all. I will develop a new Turkic language pair Turkish (tr)-Kyrgyz (ky) where Kyrgyz (ky) side will be completely developed from scratch. Interesting part of Kyrgyz language is it is Cyrillic written but Turkic based language. It will be first language pair of its type in apertium project and other machine translation projects as well.
How and who it will benefit in society?[edit]
As a part of this project a new bilingual dictionary and morphological analyzer/generator for Kyrgyz language will be developed. Both of them could be used in many purposes. The project deliverable could be used as translation tool from tr-ky and as educational tool as well. And it could help as a tutorial for other Turkic based languages.
Work and research done, resources[edit]
Language Information[edit]
Noun morphology[edit]
Kyrgyz language has several cases:
- absolute,
- definite-accusative,
- dative,
- locative,
- ablative,
- genitive
Words in Kyrgyz language morphologically built by applying suffixes in following order:
- plural suffix
- suffix of possession
- personal suffix
- case-ending
китеп (kitep)= book is the stem китеп+plural+pronoun китептер (kitepter) китептер (kitepter) is books китептеримден (kitepterimden) китеп +(pl)тер +(pronoun)им +(case)ден from by books
A noun has 5 cases
ky | Gloss | tr |
---|---|---|
китеп (kitep) | book | kitap |
китептин (kiteptin) | of that book | o kitabın |
китепке (kitepke) | to that book | o kitaba |
китепти (kitepti) | that book | o kitabı |
китепте (kitepte) | in that book | o kitapta |
китептен (kitepten) | from that book | o kitaptan |
Agglutination case[edit]
ex:
verb = окуу (okuu) = to read, stem = оку (oku) read (ky) окуп жатам (okwp jatam ) оку+п жат+ам (present continous, pr1, kyrgyz) I am reading (Mostly verbs in present continuous tense defined by two verbs. ex: оку+п жат+ам, жатам --> helping verb to define the present continuous tense). (tr) okuyorum oku+yor+um (present continous, pr1, turkish) I am reading gidiyorum = I am going git (lemma) -i -yor (for continuous tense) -um (for first personal pronoun) (Turkish) (ky) окуп жатам (okup žatam) = I am reading оку (lemma) +п(for continuous tense) жат(second verb for continuous tense) +ам (for first personal pronoun) (present continuous, p1sg, kyrgyz) окудум (okudum) = I read оку (lemma) +ду (for past tense) +м(for first personal pronoun) (past tense, p1sg, Kyrgyz)
Vowel harmony[edit]
Generally there is vowel harmony in Kyrgyz language but words imported from other languages like Russian do not obey vowel harmony restrictions.
китеп (kitep) book китептер (kitepter) books китептерим (kitepterim) my books китептеримден (kitepterimden) китеп.тер.им.ден китеп+Pl+Px1Sg+Abl `From my books.' In Turkish the word "bira" (beer) is imported from French, and in Kyrgyz, пиво "pivo" is imported from Russian пиво (pivo) beer пивалар (pivalar) beers пиваларым (pïvalarım) my beers пиваларымдан (pïvalarımdan) from my beers
Noun and Verb comparisons[edit]
Noun :
Kyrgyz | Turkish | Gloss |
---|---|---|
китеп (kitep) | kitab | book |
китептер (kitepter) | kitaplar | books |
китебим (kitebim) | kitabım | my book |
китептерим (kitepterim) | kitaplarım | my books |
китептен (kitepten) | kitaptan | from book |
китептерден (kitepterden) | kitaplardan | from books |
китебимден (kitebimden) | kitabımdan | from my book |
китептеримден (kitepterimden) | kitaplarımdan | from my books |
Verb:
Kyrgyz | Turkish | Gloss |
---|---|---|
ойнойм (ojnojm) | oynarım | I play |
ойнойсуң (ojnojsuŋ) | oynarsın | You play |
ойнойт (ojnojt) | oynar | He plays |
ойнойт (ojnojt) | oynar | She plays |
ойнойт (ojnojt) | oynar | It plays |
ойнойсуңуз (ojnojsuŋuz) | oynarsınız | You (pl.) play |
ойнойбуз (ojnojbuz) | oynarız | We play |
ойнощот (ojnošot) | oynarlar | The play |
Dictionary Information[edit]
As I mentioned above one part of the project is building bilingual dictionary. Fortunately I am not going to build it from nothing. There is StarDict version of Turkish-Kyrgyz dictionary without part-of-speech definitions. StarDict tr-ky dictionary consist 4,600 unique entries of nouns and verbs mixed. Part-of-speech could be extracted by using trmorph (open-source Turkish morphological analyser).
Lexical Selection Example:
Verb (tr) çalışmak (en) to work (tr) Ahmet fabrikada çalışıyor. (en) Ahmet is working in a factory. (ky) Ахмет фабрикада иштейт (Axmet fabrikada ištejt) (tr) Ahmet ders çalışıyor. (en) Ahmet is studying. (ky) Ахмет сабак окул жатат. (Axmet sabak okul žatat) Adjective (tr) hasta (en) ill (tr) Ahmet hasta. (en) Ahmet is ill. (ky) Ахмет ооруп жатат. (Ahmet oorup žatat) (tr) Hasta geldi. (en) (the) ill (person) arrived (ky) оорулуу келди. (Ooruluu keldi)
If the words are ambiguous for stem/POS? I am trying come up with solution soon.
If I could get part-of-speeches of Turkish words in dictionary I could use it in building apertium tr-ky bilingual dictionary. I am planning to cover at least 3000 of words in 12 days.
Kyrgyz Language morphological analyser/generator[edit]
I am developing it by using HFST (Open source project for developing morphological analyser/generators).I am still learning HFST, but simple Kyrgyz language analyser is ready according to Francis Tyers tutorial (http://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/Starting_a_new_language_with_HFST).
What is done already[edit]
An apertium project tr-ky is created as a project on SourceForge which consist of bilingual dictionary and simple Kyrgyz language morphological analyzer.
Work Plan[edit]
I tried to approximately plan my work according to GsoC given time line.

Non- Summer of Code plans[edit]
GsoC2011 is my main plan for this summer. I am employed at university as a teaching assistant but I am sure that I will have at least 35 free hours in a week to develop for Apertium.
