| Popis | The Lombard language is a Gallo-Italic language spoken in the Northern Italian region of Lombardy and some surrounding areas by 3.5 million native speakers in varied spectrum of bilingual settings and fluency. However, it is currently listed as ”definitely endangered” according to UNESCO. Despite some resurging interest in documenting, revitalizing, and using the language, no Natural Language Processing resource was specifically build for Lombard. The only existing LombardItalian parallel corpus was created as part of a bigger multilingual project by scraping aligned text from Wikipedia articles. However, we found the resulting corpus to be faulty, due to noise and erroneous alignments. Our work addresses these issues by providing a cleaner, human-revised version of this resource, which could be used as a stepping stone to build future NLP tools, such as a Machine Translation system. |
