Botlikh is a minority language that belongs to the Andic branch of the Nakh-Dagestanian language family.
This repository contains a prototype for a Botlikh morphological analyzer. Currently it processes only nouns and numerals. See the paper for a detailed description.
It is a part of a larger project by the students of the School of Linguistics at the NRU HSE that aims to provide digital tools for endangered languages.
Morphological parsers of other North Caucasian languages, made by other HSE students, can be found here:
The current work is based on the linguistic description of Botlikh by Azaev (2000), Magomedbekova (1998), and Alexeyev & Verhees (2021, draft) as well as the corpus of Andic languages collected and annotated by Moroz et al.
