| Abstract [eng] |
As Lithuania is about to become a full member of EU, it is important for its national language, although ascribed to regional languages, to stay lively and capable of serving domestic as well as legal, scientific, educational and other needs of Lithuanian speaking society. Having the aim to achieve this, the problem of language computerization is especially relevant now. Digital technologies of Lithuanian language processing - voice recognition, speech synthesis, electronic language data, terminology banks, corpora, speech corpora, computer lexicography, computer software lithuanization and others - are designed and elaborated in the scientific institutes, the institutions of higher education, and private companies; however, there are many unaccomplished works (for example, automated translation), which have to be accelerated and improved. Language is changing very rapidly therefore it is important to record its development and innovations. |
