Description
Summary:The launch of the online concordance with the parallel texts of The Little Prince in Bamana, French, and English is reported. Two working modes are available: the parallel text output and the output of an interlinearized Bamana text. In the parallel text output, the following search options are accessible: entire wordform, words starting with/ ending in/ containing a given character sequence, and exact phrase search. The search options in the interlinearized output mode also include part of speech, gloss, and lemma, but not the exact phrase search. The parallel texts in the corpus are aligned by paragraphs, and a simple algorithm to define the position of a corresponding sentence in the French or English text based on the position of the Bamana sentence is suggested. Automated sentence alignment based on the so-called anchor items (most frequent words) is briefly discussed for future applications.
