The Arabic corpora Dr. Dalal Mahmoud has referred to in an earlier message
is in the preliminary stage. It represents an effort made by Andy Freeman,
a Ph.D. candidate in Arabic linguistics to get the language center to
acquire a scanner and the appropriate software that allow scanning Arabic
texts. This facilitates entering large Arabic corpora into the computer.
Once the corpora is created, several programs could be developed (such as
concordances, tagging programs, morphological analyzers ..etc) fro many
different uses.

Please direct any inquiries about thsi corpora to Andy Freeman Email
andyf at umich.edu.
