Abstract
Information technology should have much to offer linguistics not only through the opportunities offered by large-scale data analysis and the stimulus to develop formal computational models, but through the chance to use language in systems for automatic natural language processing. The paper discusses these possibilities in detail and then examines the actual work that has been done in Bangladesh. It is an evident that this has so far been primary research within a new field of Computational Linguistics (CL) which is largely motivated by the demands and interest of practical processing systems and that information technology has rather little influence on linguistics at large.
Highlights
Language Technology (LT) is the interface of Computer Science, Linguistics and Psychology
Computational Linguistics (CL) is a relatively new discipline that lies in the intersection of the fields of linguistics and computer science
The twenty-first century is the century of the total information revolution
Summary
Language Technology (LT) is the interface of Computer Science, Linguistics and Psychology. Computational Linguistics (CL) and Natural Language Processing (NLP) are closely related names for this region and overlaps between the disciplines. It concerns how human language is constructed and how a computer may be programmed in order to handle our language. Sometimes Language Technology that referred to as human language technology — includes computational methods, computer programs and electronic devices that are specialized for analyzing, producing or modifying texts and speech. These systems must be based on few knowledge of human language. The existing language technology systems are far from achieving human ability but they have numerous possible applications
