Hi everyone, Since the past month or so, I have been studying about Apertium basically about how it works and learning what maybe considered as the "baby steps" in the world of linguistics and Machine translation. However, it has been a really nice time getting to learn about it. Though I'm still an undergraduate student I have had a fascination with localization of FOSS, which later brought me to machine translation and eventually here to the Apertium community. With this in regard, I have learned some basic stuffs and I wish to develop Nepali-Hindi language pair,and maybe even make it a Google Summer of Code Project. But to my great dismay, I have gone through a previous GSoC application (http://donchaknow.com/m/doc/gsoc_fin_sme_proposal.pdf) and found out that one needs to have some work already done over the language pair so as to build upon it.
All that I have found on Nepali and Hindi are listed below: 1] http://ltrc.iiit.ac.in/showfile.php?filename=onlineServices/morph/index.htm 2] http://www.panl10n.net/english/outputs/Working%20Papers/Nepal/Microsoft%20Word%20-%206_OK_N_331.pdf 3] http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/~santa/Nepali_Morpho_LSN.pdf 4] http://nlp.ku.edu.np/cgi-bin/dobhase This much done, I feel that I still need to doubt my knowledge about the process and need to ask myself "Where to start from" (PS I have been through the Add new Language Pair HOW TO). I would be really very thankful if I would be given some review/feedback about the resources that I have collected, and also some advice regarding how to make my first steps into this area and if possible eventually into Google Summer of Code.
