| # Digital Techniques for Language Revival |
|
|
| We explore how technology can support comparative linguistics, language education, and the revitalisation and revival of languages. |
|
|
| ## Aims |
|
|
| - NMT model training |
| - Corpus building |
| - Bridging pedagogy and typology |
|
|
| ## Current Study: Sentence-Level Corpus for Arem |
|
|
| Our current study focuses on documenting the critically endangered Arem language. We are developing a smartphone app to record sentences and support fieldwork to build a parallel corpus in English, Vietnamese, and Arem. By collecting language at the sentence level, the project aims to capture context and usage beyond word lists alone. |
|
|
| The resulting corpus will support research into Arem grammar, the creation of a dictionary with example sentences showing how words are used, and the development of neural machine translation models. |
