Cantonese Linguistics and NLP
PyCantonese helps linguists, researchers, or anyone interested in the Cantonese language to analyze Cantonese text. You can input raw Cantonese text or corpus data and it provides tools for word segmentation, part-of-speech tagging, and converting between different romanization systems like Jyutping. This is ideal for academics and commercial organizations studying or processing Cantonese.
400 stars. Available on PyPI.
Use this if you need to programmatically analyze Cantonese text for linguistic research, build language-learning tools, or process Cantonese data for natural language understanding applications.
Not ideal if you need a pre-built application for end-users rather than a programmatic library for text analysis.
