Language Processing Resources for Under-Resourced Languages - continuation

In the first part of this project (funded by SPIDER 2005-2006), a set of resources for processing Amharic (the working language of the Ethiopian government) was developed. The resources consist of text collections and tools for word-level analysis of Amharic. The primary goal of this continuation is to refine, extend and further develop the resources in order to make them useful to both the public and the research community.
