Abstract

This paper represents the procedure of creating medical and social domains corpora in NooJ. It illustrates a primary analysis of the corpora. Based on the research, the Belarusian NooJ module has been supplemented and thematic dictionaries of medical and social areas in NooJ format have been prepared. Automatic text processing emphasized words’ linguistic peculiarities (mainly morphological) that the main module of Belarusian language for NooJ did not recognize. In addition, the article shows how the corpora help to improve the quality of translation, to identify heterogeneous translation options.
