ICALL (Intelligent Computer-Assisted Language Learning): Research and development
We make language learning tools based on analysers. We want the computer to help the student to learn words, morphology and grammar. By adjusting the analysers, we can give useful feedback to the student's output. The dictionary can help the student with the morpohology and is also linked to texts in corpora.
