Idiomaggio - a language detection bot

Header.png


"The limits of my language are the limits of my world." (Ludwig Wittgenstein)

Idiomaggio is a twitter bot that detects the language of tweets and responds automatically in the right tongue. In a multilingual world there can be many different languages surround you. With the help of Idiomaggio you can figure out which language is spoken.

The twitter bot is working with the NLTK library; mainly with the built-in function stop words. Linking words, conjunctions, articles and pronouns are words that make a language speakable. However, they don't create the meaning of a text. Idiomaggio filters the stop words out and detects their language. In a second step, the tweet will be responded in the correct language.

Idiamaggio understands the European languages Swedish, Danish, Hungarian, Finnish, Portugese, German, Dutch, French, Spanish, Norwegian, English, Russian, Turkish and Italian. It responds with a single phrase. A further possibility to create more sophisticated responds is the usage of the AIML library. AIML is a markup language which creates phrases and meaning. However, AIML is not available in all of the 14 languages which the NLTK library uses. Therefore I decided to create a Twitter Bot, which doesn't pretend to be human, but responds correctly.
