Opći podaci o tečaju

Welcome to this course for anyone interested in the humanities, social sciences and linguistics who want to learn about working with corpora of minoritized languages!

Discover and understand how this type of corpora can be created and learn about important frameworks to be able to work on and with them.

This short introductory course offers insights into how language corpora support the progress of research and society and how they contribute to the digital survival of languages with a limited corpus.

"In the field of information technology, all language communities are entitled to have at their disposal equipment adapted to their linguistic system and tools and products in their language, so as to derive full advantage from the potential offered by such technologies for self-expression, education, communication, publication, translation and information processing and the dissemination of culture in general."
