For each<br>of these levels, NooJ provides linguists with one or more formal tools<br>specifically designed to facilitate the description of each phenomenon, as<br>well as parsing tools designed to be as computationally efficient as<br>possible. This approach distinguishes NooJ from most computational<br>linguistic tools, which provide a single formalism that should describe<br>everything. As a corpus processing tool, NooJ allows users to apply<br>sophisticated linguistic queries to large corpora in order to build indices<br>and concordances, annotate texts automatically, perform statistical<br>analyses, etc.<br><br>NooJ is freely available and linguistic modules can already be downloaded<br>for Acadian, Arabic, Armenian, Bulgarian, Catalan, Chinese, Croatian,<br>French, English, German, Hebrew, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Polish,<br>Portuguese, Spanish and Turkish. <br><br><div>--------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>End of Arabic-L: 06 Dec 2010</div></body></html>
