You can't find tools and application to analyze source language i.e. Nepali. Either you have to build standalone application from morpheme to semantics i.e POS tag to Synset or customize several modules of Appertium platform.you have to think about timeline and your effort. Think with cool mind and make a decision. If you want to submit a proposal to GSC based on Appertium platform write >> a draft proposal including related work previously done in Appertium.
