Quranic Arabic Corpus, an effort to provide a linguistic resource for researchers

The Quranic Arabic Corpus, an annotated linguistic resource which shows the Arabic grammar, syntax and morphology for each word in the Holy Quran.

It is part of a PhD research project into Arabic language computing at the University of Leeds.

Eric Atwell, supervises the Arabic language computing research group within the School of Computing, said that this project is also supported by a wide community of volunteers.

The Quranic Arabic Corpus project aims to provide a richly annotated linguistic resource for researchers wanting to study the language of the Quran. The grammatical analysis will help readers further in uncovering the detailed intended meanings of each verse and sentence. Each word of the Quran is tagged with its part-of-speech as well as multiple morphological features.
