Linda Wiechetek, Chiara Argese, Tommi A. Pirinen, Trond Trosterud · Accademia University Press eBooks · 2020
Lexicalizing compounds, in addition to treating them dynamically, is a key element in giving us idiomatic translations and detecting compound errors. We present and evaluate an e-dictionary (NDS) and a grammar checker (GramDivvun) for North Sámi. We achieve a coverage of 98% for NDS-queries and of 96% for compound error detection in GramDivvun.
