[Corpora-List] pashto corpus

[Eric Atwell]

Azra,

Take a look at

Latifa Al-Sulaiti. 2004. 
Designing and Developing a Corpus of Contemporary Arabic
MSc research thesis, School of Computing, Leeds University
downloadable: http://www.comp.leeds.ac.uk/research/pubs/theses.shtml

Latifa addressed the issues you ask about - design, structure, tools
etc, these principles could transfer from Arabic to Pashto

Good luck!
