Synopsis

Chukchi is a language with rich and complicated morphology and incorporation.
By now morphological parsers using regular expressions were not able to handle it properly
HFST seems to be the solution

Deliverables

Anticipated result: morphological analyser for Chukchi that handles

  • nouns
  • verbs
  • incorporation (probably)

Benefits

The result of this work, if it succeeds, would be of great use for linguists investigating Chukchi and an important brick for building a corpus of Chukchi.

Non-GSoC summer plans

I am going to write my bachelor thesis by middle June, so I will only be able to spend 10-15 hours per week.
I am also going for a conference on 9-15 July, so I will be able to spend 15-20 hours for the project that week.
