Abstract

A language processing system for text normalization of an input string of a semiotic class. In an aspect, a method includes receiving an input string; accessing, for a semiotic class of non-standard words, a language universal covering grammar for a plurality of languages that generates, for each language of the plurality of languages, one or more sequences of word-level components for each instance of the semiotic class in the language; for each of the plurality of languages, accessing a lexical map specific to the language and that maps each sequence of word-level components for each instance of the semiotic class in the language verbalizations in the language; generating, from the language universal grammar and the lexical maps, a lattice of possible verbalizations of the input string; and selecting one of the possible verbalizations as a selected verbalization for the input string.
