A Simple Audio and Text Collection-Annotation Tool Targeted to Brazilian Indigenous Language Native Speakers

Abstract

In this paper we present an audio and text annotation tool for native speakers, with a particular focus on Brazilian indigenous languages. Our tool simplifies the process of language resource annotation and employs gamefication techniques typically found in language learning games. Then we describe the annotation tool and present preliminary results for the Bororo language. We discuss the limitations of our tool, highlighting ethical and practical implementation concerns.
