Ling browser: a NLP based browser for linguistic information

Abstract

Linguistic students and researchers need practical tools providing information about elements of a language to understand its properties and conduct research on that language. Many computer assisted language learning tools have been developed since the emerging of computers. However, none of these tools aim to satisfy the needs of advanced learners. In this thesis, we introduce a tool, LingBrowser, which is an intelligent hyper-text browser that employs natural language processing technology to provide an interactive environment for advanced language learners to access all kinds of linguistic information about the words in a Turkish text. LingBrowser provides immediate information about morphological, segmental, pronunciation and semantic properties about the words in any text. Also, with a search interface, LingBrowser can locate examples of many linguistic phonemena in the source text
