Hi Okonkwo, My remark is slightly different to Sevilay's. Igbo seems to be a language with quite a complex morphology. Wouldn't it make sense to work just on the morphological analyser ( https://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/Ideas_for_Google_Summer_of_Code/Morphological_analyser ) ? Currently, apertium-ibo lexc file has some 200 words and no morphotactics. So the analyser should be done from scratch (maybe previous work in Apertium on another Niger-Congo language can help a bit). Otherwise, as Sevilay points, you'll have not enough time to work on transfer rules. And transfer between two very distant languages, like Igbo and English, is a major challenge. At least one whole GSoC should be devoted to it.
