[Corpora-List] Bilingual Dictionary from Comparable Corpora

[Emad Mohamed]

Hi Javid,
If you have a parallel corpus, you can use an alignment tool such as Giza++
or fast-aligner to get word alignments. You can run the alignment in both
directions to get a bi-directional dictionary.
If your corpus is comparable (which I understand as not completely
parallel, but I may be wrong here), then a tool like hungalign can help
extract the parallel sentences, which you can then use for building your
dictionary.
HTH,
Emad
