Je dis pas que je suis hype, mais je suis quand même hype de pouvoir générer "automatiquement" un groupe nominal (article + nom) en #lorrain en partant d'un simple lexème sur #Wikidata.
Ce lien va faire apparaître devant vos yeux ébahis un morceau de texte généré spécialement pour vous : "deis fruts" (= "des fruits") !
Merci #Wikifunctions, et je poursuis le chemin pour être une des premières langues régionales de France sur Abstract Wikipédia ! :blobfoxreachaww:

# Erklärung, wie man einen natürlichsprachlichen Satz aus #Wikidata und einer Funktion von #Wikifunctions erzeugt
Um einfach zu erklären, wie man aus einer Funktion von Wikifunctions und einem Lexem von Wikidata einen natürlichsprachlichen Satz erzeugt, gehen wir schrittweise vor.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abstract_WikipediaWikifunctions ist eine Bibliothek für Funktionen. Diese können beispielsweise zur Durchführung mathematischer Berechnungen oder zur Erzeugung grammatikalischer Formen verwendet werden.

I have blogged about how in preparation for #Wikimania I had a nerdy, data-centric look at the Swahili language.
https://blog.johl.io/mimi-sisema-kiswahili-lakini-ninapenda-data/
-
I need to share my excitement here even though it’s a nerdy niche excitement: I found a Swahili Verb Conjugation Dataset and I cannot wait to play with it. #Wikifunctions #wikidata

如何應用 Wikidata 中的 Lexeme 資料，或許 Wikifunctions 可以來幫忙！
Wikifunctions 是一個新的維基媒體運動專案，其中收錄了程式碼也提供了程式碼執行的空間，目前社群開發出了以 Wikifunctions 可以應用 Wikidata Lexicographical data 的程式範例，歡迎臺灣社群可以參考應用範例做應用開發。

I had a plan to write a Lunar New Year function for #Wikifunctions, but I think I will not find the coding time to have it ready by New Year.

I have entered all functions for natural language generation in #Esperanto in the #Wikifunctions project's function catalogue. I wrote some of the functions myself. The nice thing about Esperanto is that in a planned language with no exceptions in the formation of grammatical forms, the set of functions can be complete—all possible grammatical forms of the language can be programmatically generated.

#Wikifunctions is a new project for everyone to collaboratively create and maintain computer routines that receive arguments and return a result in the world's natural and programming languages.
If that excites you, you are the right kind of weird and maybe should check out Wikifunctions.

I attended the first #Wikifunctions Volunteers' Corner videocall of this year tonight and I was happy to see the implementation of "cups to milliliters" (Z21658) being developed live during the call.

Yesterday, I attended a workshop at the University of Stuttgart. One of the invited speakers, Denny Vrandečić (@vrandecic), showed us the challenges of multilingual knowledge, and a new project from the @wikimediafoundation, #Wikifunctions. Functions are knowledge, and sharing functions on the #Web can have an incredible impact (cc @royaheeee @yiyiyiyi). This is an really interesting topic, and I wonder how #SemanticWebServices and other techniques can help to automatically discover functions.

Function to calculate the nth digit of π on Wikifunctions
-
Remember: Pi Day is just an invention of Big Math to sell you more Math.
Also: since last week, we have numbers in Wikifunctions! And today we added a function to calculate the nth digit of π
