apertium-af-nl 0.1

The first version of the af-nl language pack is now in SVN (not any more, it was somehow deleted???). However, the Dutch (NL) morphological dictionary doesn't contain enough words to do proper translations. Here are some of the words that should be added to the NL dictionary (from the first sentence I've tried to translate):

  • trein
  • vertrekt
  • uur
  • Etc.

If you can help, please do let us know!

What is needed

To fix the Dutch morphological dictionary, we need a word list that contains forms or paradigms like this:

bier,bier,n.sg
bier,biere,n.pl

Where n=noun, sg=singular, pl=plural, etc.

A list that can be converted to this format will also do.

The Tadpole morphological analyser should produce sufficient level of detail to be converted into an Apertium format.
