A twitter conversation led to the creation of a new project to work on annotated Greek texts for language learners.

In the last couple of weeks I’ve done a couple of minor releases of the greek-normalisation Python library which brings together various code I use to clean up Greek texts and normalise the forms.

For years I’ve had Python code for normalising Greek forms, checking for stray characters, etc. I finally got around to consolidating them in a library.

Here are the conferences I’m attending (and in some cases, presenting at) in June through August. I probably should have posted this at the start of my conference travel, but here it is.

Part twenty-eight of a tour through Greek inflectional morphology to help get students thinking more systematically about the word forms they see (and maybe teach a bit of general linguistics along the way).

One of my goals for 2019 is to bring more structure to various disperate Greek projects and, as part of that, I’ve started consolidating multiple one-off projects I’ve done around vocabulary coverage statistics and ordering experiments.

Exactly three months ago to the day, I announced that Seumas Macdonald and I were working on a corrected, open, digital edition of the Apostolic Fathers based on Lake. That initial work is now complete.

In Five Types of Morphological Analysis I outlined five distinct ways of approaching morphological (or potentially any linguistic) analysis. In support of some of these, I have some additional examples from a pair of papers I’m reading and a conference I just attended.

People talking about morphological analyses can often speak across each other because they have different purposes in mind. Here’s an initial attempt to outline five possibly distinct notions one might be referring to.
