Task ideas for Google Code-in/Documentation of resources

From Apertium
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Create a page on the Apertium wiki (where this page is!) like the pages listed below, but for a language that doesn't currently have a page. It should list as many resources on the language as you can find. It should also list any Apertium resources that already exist for the language.

What resources to look for

Try to find the following resources for a language, and keep track of the license:

  • linguistic grammars of the language
  • academic work on the language, including any computational linguistics work already done involving the language
  • bilingual dictionaries of the language and some other language
  • large monolingual corpora of the language
  • parallel corpora of the language and some other language

Where to look

Scour sites that might present or link to the right sort of resources on the languages:

  • Sites with scholarly articles: Google Scholar, jstor, academia.edu, etc.
  • Places that list books: WolrdCat, Amazon, etc.
  • Your favourite search engine
  • The Apertium wiki
