• Annotated texts, dictionaries, thesauruses;<br />

• Software units: linguistic processors (machine translators, TTS<br />

engines, text and speech recognizers, etc.); computer workstations<br />

(for teachers, editors, linguists, etc.); multilingual search engines.<br />

Creating a Tatar electronic corpus is a fundamental scientific and practical<br />

problem. By solving it we will ensure quick and easy computer access to a<br />

variety of large-scale linguistic resources. This project can help establish an<br />

appropriate infrastructure (Tatar content and proper tools for working with it)<br />

for the Tatar language to be fully represented in cyberspace.<br />

Another interesting and useful product, developed in cooperation with the<br />

ABBYY company and the Language, Literature and Arts Institute of the<br />

Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Tatarstan is a multilingual Lingvo<br />

X3 dictionary, containing 154 dictionaries in 12 languages​, including Tatar.<br />

This electronic dictionary is of value for Tatar-speaking users, as through the<br />

Tatar-Russian dictionary of about 60,000 entries one can find equivalents in all<br />

dictionaries for other languages (English, French, Spanish, German, Chinese,<br />

Turkish, etc.).<br />

WordCorr, a morphological spell checker of Tatar texts for MS Word, is an<br />

essential tool for recordkeeping and publishing. The programme allows to find<br />

misspellings in Tatar texts and correct them choosing from a list of word forms.<br />

It works for Windows 95/98/2000/XP/Vista/7 and applications.<br />

Since 1990s, we have been working actively on the creation of the Tatar language<br />

e-learning tools, and educational programmes for studying various subjects in<br />

Tatar. A number of recent developments are available on the Internet, such as<br />

the Tatar Teller Zaman, a multimedia electronic Tatar textbook (http://ttz.<br />

fosslabs.ru/); Tatar-Online, a multimedia online Tatar textbook (http://dev.<br />

tol.tatar.ru/); and a multimedia fifth grade Tatar textbook for remote education<br />

(http://distat.stage.metastudio.ru/).<br />

The Tatar Teller Zaman Programme contains over 2000 Tatar words, more<br />

than 2,500 images, voiced dialogue on various topics, and 11 exciting language<br />

games. Three types of different exercises allow to assess a student’s language<br />

proficiency. One can improve Tatar pronunciation by way of repeating after<br />

the recording. Multilingual interface (Russian, Tatar (Cyrillic and Latin), and<br />

English) enables both Russian and English speakers to study Tatar.<br />

With the assistance of the Ministry of Education and Science of the<br />

Republic of Tatarstan and the Magarif Publishers in cooperation with the<br />

Prosveshcheniye-Media Company (Moscow), Tatar versions of electronic<br />

teaching aids “Chemistry-8” and “Physics-7” have been developed. Multimedia<br />
