Why is it you are interested in machine translation?
Being a student of Computer Science, I always tried to get NLP-related tasks for course projects. At the beginning it was subconsciously, but during last four years I am strongly interested in computational linguistics.
Machine translation is a part of NLP, but it is not only reason of my interest. I am using machine translation often for getting to know meaning of unknown words, for example during translation part of the book Adam Przepiórkowski “The IPI PAN Corpus: Preliminary version” (http://nlp.ipipan.waw.pl/~adamp/Papers/2004-corpus/) or site of European Summer Scholl Culture & Technology (http://www.culingtec.uni-leipzig.de/ESU/, coming soon). So my life experience shows that MT is really useful.
Why is it that you are interested in the Apertium project?
Why should Google and Apertium sponsor it ?
How and who will it benefit in society ?
Which of the published tasks are you interested in? What do you plan to do?
I am going to work on a project Apertium-pl-ukr: Machine translation between Polish and Ukrainian.
