Auteurs : Bensafa Abdelkader .

Résumé

With the rapid movement of today’s world, many disciplines witnessed lot of –sometimes radical changes; and so is the study of human language. One of the agents contributing in the process is Information and Communication Technologies in general and computers in particular. This last helped in the development of NLP applications. Natural language processing (NLP) is viewed as the ability of a computer program to understand human speech as it is spoken. All of which resulted in what is called now computational linguistics. The aim of this paper is to shed light on Computational Arabic linguistics: an example of NLP in Algeria by addressing the following questions: What was done? And what is missing? The rationale behind is to pave the way for our university students to help them in the process of decoding the current practices and the future directions regarding the Arabic language, besides facilitating cultural communication with other.
