This is to announce the Sept 8th release of my Sanskrit computational 
linguistics platform, 
available at http://pauillac.inria.fr/~huet/SKT/ 
The verbal morphology is now complete, f or the present system (present, 
imperfect, 
optative, imperative), passive, perfect, future and aorist. 
 
This may be tested at 
http://pauillac.inria.fr/~huet/SKT/DICO/grammar.html 
where you submit the root in various transliteration form Velthuis,
Kyoto-Harvard, WX and SLP1 plus 2 Unicode fonts (Devanagari and IAST)
and the
present class. 
E.g.: bhuu 1, as 2, m.rj 2, han 2, haa 3, hu 3, daa 4, su 5, p.r 6, yuj 
7, k.r 8, j~naa 9, 
namas 10, etc. 
 
Conversely, a lemmatiser (at 
http://pauillac.inria.fr/~huet/SKT/DICO/index.html#stemmer) 
attempts to tag inflected words. 
Try for instance apibat, akaar.siit, dudoha, vaahyate, etc (clicking on 
Verb). 
 
An experimental segmenter/tagger is also available. It will segment 
simple sentences, verb final, such as maarjaarodugdha.mpibati, 
analysing the required sandhi. 
In tagger mode, it gives a shallow parsing of the sentence or phrase, 
linking t o the 
dictionary. 
It may be used for instance to tag verb forms with preverbs, such as 
utti.s.tha, 
and to decompose compounds. It is able to correctly analyse forms such 
as 
ihehi (iha-aa-ihi = come here), and adhiiye (I learn, with sandhi 
duplicating the i). 
 
The current syntax of recognized phrases is N*.(1+V) with V=(P+1).R 
that is a list of noun forms followed optionally with a verb, where a 
verb is optionally a 
preverb followed with a root form; the current set P of prefixes is: 
ati, adhi, adhyava, anu, anuparaa, anupra, anuvi, anta.h, apa, apaa, 
api, 
abhi, abhini, abhipra, abhivi, abhisam, abhyava, abhyaa, abhyut, 
abhyupa, 
ava, aa, ut, udaa, upa, upani, upasam, upaa, upaadhi, tira.h, ni, ni.h, 
nirava, niraa, paraa, pari, parini, parisam, paryupa, pi, pura.h, pra, 
prati, pratini, prativi, pratisam, pratyaa, pratyut, prani , pravi, 
pravyaa, praa, vi, vini, vini.h, viparaa, vipari, vipra, vyati, vyapa, 
vyava, vyaa, vyut, sa, sa.mni, sa.mpra, sa.mprati, sa.mpravi, sa"mvi, 
sam, samava, samaa, samut, samudaa, samudvi, samupa. 
 
Full lists of declined forms are available as downloadable free 
linguistic resources. 
The first one comprises 135,000 declined nouns (it includes pronouns, 
numbers, participles, 
particles and undeclinable forms such as absolutive and infinitive 
forms). The second one 
comprises 74,000 conjugated root forms. These data bases are available 
in pdf format and 
XML (given with a DTD). 
 
This work is still in a very preliminary form, since it has not been 
tested yet on real 
corpus. I beg the indulgence of the reader, since many mistakes and 
omissions remain. 
He is kindly requested to report them to me. 
Secondary conjugations a re not systematically generated, they are 
included only if 
explicitly reported in the dictionary. Aorist forms are also included 
on need, I did 
not attempt to generate all forms given in Whitney roots. Also 
participles, infinitives, 
periphrastic future and perfect, are not systematically generated. 
Conditional and precative 
are missing. On the other hand, I generally generate both active 
(parasmaipada) and middle 
(aatmanepada) forms, so report non attested forms only when they do not 
make sense 
semantically. 
 
All these tools are available one click away from the Sanskrit 
dictionary index, at 
http://pauillac.inria.fr/~huet/SKT/DICO/ 
Enjoy
