Apertium linguistic data for Upper Sorbian

Upper Sorbian: apertium-hsb

This is an Apertium monolingual language package for Upper Sorbian. What you can use this language package for:

• Morphological analysis of Upper Sorbian
• Morphological generation of Upper Sorbian
• Part-of-speech tagging of Upper Sorbian

Requirements

You will need the following software installed:

• lttoolbox (>= 3.5.1)
• apertium (>= 3.6.1)
• vislcg3 (>= 1.3.1)

If this does not make any sense, we recommend you look at: www.apertium.org.

Compiling

Given the requirements being installed, you should be able to just run:

$ autoreconf -fvi
$ ./configure
$ make

You can use ./autogen.sh instead of autoreconf and ./configure if you're compiling from source.

If you're doing development, you don't have to install the data, you can use it directly from this directory.

If you are installing this language package as a prerequisite for an Apertium translation pair, then do (typically as root / with sudo):

# make install

You can use a --prefix with ./configure to install as a non-root user, but make sure to use the same prefix when installing the translation pair and any other language packages.

If any of this doesn't make sense or doesn't work, see https://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/Install_language_data_by_compiling

Testing

If you are in the source directory after running make, the following commands should work:

$ echo "TODO: test sentence" | apertium -d . hsb-morph
TODO: test analysis result

$ echo "TODO: test sentence" | apertium -d . hsb-tagger
TODO: test tagger result
