My experience tilts more "computational" than "linguistics". In particular, my knowledge of phonetics and phonology is weak. Therefore, I'd prefer to work with someone with a strong linguistics background and perhaps less computational experience so that we could complement each other!

Ngaanyatjarra

  • ISO 639-3: ntj.
  • An indigenous language of Western Australia, particularly Warburton.
  • about 1,100 native speakers (as of 2016 census).
  • Morphological typology: synthetic? (the WP article refers to afixation).
  • Written exclusively in the Latin script without diacritics, so encoding text/a keyboard layout should be trivial (just use English's).

Low German

  • ISO 639-3: nds.
  • West Germanic language variety spoken mainly in Northern Germany, with closely related dialects spoken in the northeastern part of the Netherlands.
  • The language is referred to in itself as Plattdütsch among other names.
  • Estimated 4.35–7.15 million native speakers.
  • Morphological classification: synthetic (declension of adjectives/nouns and conjugation of verbs described on WP).
  • Latin script, with competing orthographic standards based on Dutch's and German's, so the Dutch and German keyboard layouts, respectively, should suffice.

Balinese

  • ISO 639-3: ban.
