VISL Overview
The purpose of this "Overview" is to provide a brief introduction
to the various options you have when exploring and using the VISL
Site. The World of VISL is basically organized into two areas. As you
can see at the left-hand side of your screen, the first area is
ordered under the title "VISL Tools". These grammar "tools" have been
designed by the staff and student-assistants associated with the VISL
project. Currently, the following "tools" are available for you:
- Grammatical Analyses (pre-analyzed sentences and automatic
machine parsing)
- Games & Quizzes (testing of word classes and other
grammatical topics)
- Corpus Search (access to the BNC and other language
corpora)
- Machine Translation
Within each specific "tools" page, you will find additional
information concerning the functionality of the VISL Site. The second
area is organized around the languages which are found on the VISL
Site. Through the individual language links, you can access the VISL
tools specifically developed and designed for that language.
VISL Languages
If you access one of the VISL languages through the entry page,
you will be asked the question "Which VISL tool do you want to use?".
Within each language you will find various options available to you.
In the table below, we have provided an overview of what is currently
available for each language.
