MorphGNT 5.06 Released

Well, it’s been about a hundred hours work over the last six months, but I’m pleased to announce the release of a new version of [MorphGNT], the morphologically parsed Greek New Testament database made available under a Creative Commons license.

Besides some corrections to the text (mostly rho-breathing) and a couple of parsing code changes, this release has a huge number of corrections to the lemmata—160 lemma changes in 465 places. See this blog entry for how potential errors for this round of corrections were discovered.

at the intersection of computing, linguistics, philology, and learning science

By day I’m an entrepreneur, web technologist and open-source developer but my academic background is in linguistics (along with some classics, comparative philology, and educational statistics) and my main avocation is working on text, annotations, analysis and software relating to historical languages with a particular interest in facilitating better learning.

While my focus has mostly been on Biblical Greek, much of the work is highly relevant to other Hellenistic Greek texts, other dialects of Ancient Greek and, indeed, texts in completely different languages as well.

All code written for this endeavour is open source and text and data is made available under a Creative Commons license to the extent allowed by the sources used.
