dc.description.abstract |
This article introduces a prototype of a writing (and learning) assistant for verbal relative clauses of the African language Sepedi, accessible from within a dictionary or from a word processor. It is an example of how a user support tool for complicated grammatical structures in a scarcely resourced language can be compiled. We describe a dynamic light-weight tool aimed at combining user-knowledge with text production support, i.e., user-involved interactive text production of the complicated verbal relative in Sepedi. In this article, the focus is on access in a dictionary use situation. Although the tool is intended as a writing assistant to support users in text production; it also satisfies text reception and cognitive needs, but its focus is on solving text production issues related with the interaction between lexical items and complex grammatical structures in the African (Bantu) languages and for learning by users and/or training users in this interaction. |

dc.description.abstract |
Hierdie artikel stel 'n prototipe van 'n skryf- en (leer)hulpmiddel bekend vir werkwoordrelatiewe konstruksies in die Afrikataal Sepedi, wat vanuit 'n woordeboek of 'n woordverwerker toeganklik is. Dit dien as voorbeeld van hoe 'n gebruikershulpmiddel vir ingewikkelde grammatikale strukture in 'n hulpbronbeperkte taal saamgestel kan word. Ons beskryf 'n dinamiese liggewig hulpmiddel wat gemik is op die kombinering van gebruikerskennis met teksproduksie-ondersteuning, dit wil sê, gebruikersbetrokkenheid by interaktiewe teksproduksie van die ingewikkelde werkwoordrelatiewe in Sepedi. In hierdie artikel is die fokus op toegang tydens 'n woordeboekgebruiksituasie. Hoewel die werktuig bedoel is as 'n skryfhulpmiddel om gebruikers in die produksie van teks te ondersteun, voldoen dit ook aan teksresepsie- en kognitiewe behoeftes. Die fokus is egter op die oplossing van teksproduksiekwessies wat verband hou met die interaksie tussen leksikale items en komplekse grammatikale strukture in die Afrikatale asook op die aanleer van taal deur gebruikers en/of die opleiding van gebruikers in hierdie interaksie. |
