The Lotsawa Workbench is an initiative of the Tsadra Foundation research department. Currently, this is just a test and we welcome any comments and suggestions. We hope to invite collaboration from users and stakeholders from Dharma groups as well as academia. Please contact us if you are interested in developing this project with us: research AT tsadra DOT org.
PILOT PROJECT
This project will develop the current Dharma Dictionary into a flexible Lotsawa Workbench that links to as many resources as possible. The hope is that translators can add content via clearly defined and easy-to-use forms and the dictionary will continue to develop into something more and more useful.
A Modular Approach:
Phase One: Linking
- Link headwords (WIKI PAGENAMES) to existing online databases on each Dictionary Term Page.
- Develop FORMS for adding detailed content to Dictionary Term Pages.
Phase Two: TMs
- Integrate existing translation memories (TMs).
- Create new TMs from Tsadra translators.
Phase Three:Text Analytics
- Develop text analytical tools for lexical work
