Abstract

In this paper, we present the concept of Anusaaraka. Starting with a small introduction of natural language processing to understand the entire concept we move on to detailed overview of Anusaaraka. India is very rich when it comes to languages hence entirely different rules are needed to be incorporated for each language. Indian languages are free-word order languages hence should be dealt accordingly [16]. Anusaaraka is a kind of language translator. It is designed to translate English to any Indian language. Outlines of some other Indian language translators developed during recent years are also given in short to provide a overview of the progress in the field of translation. The key features of each one are presented and analyzed to meet the requirements of an ideal system.
