- Organization Name
- The Apertium project
- Description
- The Apertium project develops a free/open-source platform for machine translation and language technology. We try and focus our efforts on lesser-resourced and marginalised languages, but also work with larger languages.
- The platform, including data for a large number of language pairs, a translation engine and auxiliary tools is being developed around the world, largely in universities and companies (e.g. Prompsit Language Engineering), but also independent free-software developers play a huge role.
- There are currently 23 published language pairs within the project (including a number of "firsts" — for example Spanish—Occitan, Breton—French, and Basque—Spanish among others), and several more in development.

- Why has your org chosen to participate in Google Code-in?
- We have had in the past a number of pre-university students participating in the project and making very useful contributions. We have also had the same students making enquiries about Google Summer of Code, which unfortunately they could not participate in.

- 2009, 2010
- What is the main development mailing list for your organization? This question will be shown to students who would like to get more information about applying to your organization for Google Code-in 2010-11. If your organization uses more than one list, please make sure to include a description of the list so students know which to use.
