The MLRS is an ongoing project which focusses on the creation of tools and resources for the languages of the Maltese Islands, namely Maltese, English and Maltese Sign Language.
Resources and tools
Currently, resources fall into the following categories:
- Corpora: general corpora of Maltese text, and learner corpora of Maltese English and Maltese
- Electronic lexicons, including an online, searchable Maltese-English dictionary and a historical dictionary of Maltese
- Natural Language Processing tools, including a Part-of-Speech tagger for Maltese.

Linguistics and Language Technology and the Department of Artificial Intelligence at the
University of Malta.
It has benefited from the support of:
