Apertium linguistic data for Swahili
Swahili: `apertium-swa`
===============================================================================
This is an Apertium monolingual language package for Swahili. What
you can use this language package for:
* Morphological analysis of Swahili
* Morphological generation of Swahili
* Part-of-speech tagging of Swahili
Requirements
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You will need the following software installed:
* lttoolbox (>= 3.3.0)
* apertium (>= 3.3.0)
* vislcg3 (>= 0.9.9.10297)
* hfst (>= 3.8.2)
If this does not make any sense, we recommend you look at: www.apertium.org.
Compiling
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Given the requirements being installed, you should be able to just run:
```bash
$ ./configure
$ make
```
You can use `./autogen.sh` instead of `./configure` if you're compiling
from source.
If you're doing development, you don't have to install the data, you
can use it directly from this directory.
If you are installing this language package as a prerequisite for an
Apertium translation pair, then do (typically as root / with sudo):
```bash
$ make install
```
You can use a `--prefix` with `./configure` to install as a non-root user,
but make sure to use the same prefix when installing the translation
pair and any other language packages.
Testing
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you are in the source directory after running make, the following
commands should work:
```console
$ echo "TODO: test sentence" | apertium -d . swa-morph
TODO: test analysis result
$ echo "TODO: test sentence" | apertium -d . swa-tagger
TODO: test tagger result
```
