Hello Linguist List Readers,

My heartfelt greetings to each one of you. I hope this letter finds
you well.

My name is Natasha Singh, and I am currently a final-year MS
Computational Linguistics student specializing in morpho-syntax. My
research interests primarily revolve around Machine Translation,
Language Models, and Code Generation. These fields hold immense
potential for advancements in various industries, including
technology, communication, and linguistics. By delving deeper into
these areas, I aim to contribute to the development of more efficient
and accurate language processing systems that can bridge communication
gaps across different languages and cultures.

Today, I am reaching out to you with a humble plea. As I sit down to
write these words, I can't help but feel a surge of gratitude. My
journey in this field has been a rollercoaster of challenges and
triumphs, but one thing remains constant: the invaluable support of
the Linguist List.

As an international student, studying abroad has been both a dream
come true and a challenge. This year, I have been fortunate enough to
work as a web developer with the Linguist List. The Linguist List has
been my guiding light, offering resources and opportunities that have
shaped my academic path. It has played a crucial role in managing my
finances and ensuring that I can focus on my studies without undue
financial stress.

But the reality is, the Linguist List needs your help to keep its
doors open. Your donation has the power to create a significant
impact, benefiting not only me but also numerous students endeavoring
to leave their mark in the realm of linguistics. It's more than just
relieving financial pressures; it's about granting us the ability to
chase our dreams and spearhead innovation within our field.

So, I'm reaching out to you today, not just as a student, but as
someone who dreams of making a difference. I'm asking for your
support, your kindness, and your belief in what we can achieve
together. I would be deeply grateful for any contribution you could
make towards the Linguist List fund drive
(https://funddrive.linguistlist.org/donate/). Your contribution, no
matter how big or small, will have a ripple effect that reaches far
beyond these words.

Thank you for listening to my story. Thank you for considering my
request. And thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for being a part
of this journey.

Warm regards,
Natasha Singh
Web developer @ Linguist List
