Bhittaipedia (Sindhi: ڀٽائيپيڊيا) is a project on Shah Jo Risalo, where all compilations, translations, books, research articles on the works of Shah Abdul Latif Bhittai are published. The project is developed by Abdul Majid Bhurgri Institute of Language Engineering, Hyderabad, Sindh Pakistan.[1]
Development[edit]
Idea development was by computational linguist Amar Fayaz Buriro, who presented the concept of Bhittaipedia, where all translations of Shah Jo Risalo made by different authors and research papers including books may be publish on one Website as like Encyclopedia. Scientific data of animals, birds, places and human characters which were sung by Shah Abdul Latif Bhittai in his poetry will be provided in the research portal. Then Abdul Majid Bhurgri Institute of Language Engineering started work on this project.[2][3]
Languages[edit]
Sindhi is a primary language of Bhittaipedia, while English, Arabic, Persian, Urdu and Punjabi translations are available on the web application. The transliteration in Devanagari and Latin typography of each verse has been also published. Using Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, Bhittaipedia provides web portal users with machine translations in 130 different languages.[4][5][6]
