LingvoDoc is a linguistic platform.
Designed for compiling, analyzing and storing dictionaries, corpora and concordances of various languages and dialects.
It currently contains more than 1000 audio dictionaries and 300 text corpora representing the dialects of various world languages.
It stores unique data on the endangered languages of Russia.
Many dialects have already disappeared, and the LingvoDoc platform holds data from archives, which are presently stacked and inaccessible.
It keeps records on some extinct languages
(for example, Eastern Mansi) as well as those that are in danger of extinction (that is, languages that have no more than 10 speakers over 60 years old left).
The pros of the LingvoDoc platform
A chance for many researchers to work simultaneously and independently
A possibility to automatically check for errors in the processed data
Unique software that reproduces the experimental-phonetic, etymological and morphological work of a researcher 100 times faster
An option to create results of intellectual activity (RIAs) for the needs of writing reports and working with data
