Then you should consider attending the GF Resource Grammar Summer School
in Gothenburg on 17-28 August 2009.
The GF Resource Grammar Library is an open-source computational grammar resource
that currently covers 12 languages. The Summer School is a part of a
collaborative effort to extend the library to all of the 23 official
EU languages. Also other languages chosen by the participants are welcome.
The GF Resource Grammar Library is an open-source computational grammar
resource that currently covers 12 languages. It has been created in
a collaborative effort using the GF (Grammatical Framework) grammar formalism.
The Summer School aims to boost the extension of the library to new languages.
The missing EU languages are:
Czech, Dutch, Estonian, Greek, Hungarian, Irish, Latvian, Lithuanian,
Maltese, Portuguese, Slovak, and Slovenian. There is also more work to
Particularly in focus are the missing 12 of the 23 official languages of the
European Union: \textit{Czech, Dutch,
Estonian, Greek, Hungarian, Irish, Latvian, Lithuanian,
Maltese, Portuguese, Slovak, and Slovenian}. There is also more work to
be done on Polish and Romanian.
Any other languages chosen by the participants are also welcome.
Good knowledge of the language is essential, but you don't need to be a
native speaker.
The linguistic coverage of the library includes the inflectional morphology
and basic syntax of each language. It can be used in GF applications
and also ported to other formats. It can also be used for building other
linguistic resources, such as morphological lexica and parsers.
and basic syntax of each language. It can be used for parsing,
generation, translation, multilingual web pages,
speech recognition, dialogue systems, language teaching, morphological
analysis, software localization, and lots of other things.
Grammars written in GF can be converted to many different formats.
The library is licensed under LGPL.
In the summer school, each language will be implemented by one or two students
working together. A morphology implementation will be credited
as a Chalmers course worth 7.5 ETCS points; adding a syntax implementation
as a Chalmers University
course worth 7.5 ETCS points; adding a syntax implementation
will be worth more. The estimated total work load is 1-2 months for the
morphology, and 3-6 months for the whole grammar.
Participation in the summer school is free.

but not compulsory) starts on 20 April.
Some travel grants will be available. They are distributed on the basis of a
