Deliverable 5.3 Creating linguistic corpora for languages with no unified written standard

Creating linguistic corpora for languages with no unified written standard.

Joanna Dolińska (Univ. Warsaw), concentrated on the role of the so-called heritage/legacy data for the documentation of the under-resourced languages in the form of linguistic corpora. The talk discussed several techniques of working with languages that are written down with various types of scripts, and which represent several orthographies, highlighting the importance of metadata in language documentation and linguistic corpora.
