• Resumen

  • This paper presents the application of GROBID-Dictionaries (Khemakhem et al., 2017; Khemakhem et al., 2018a; Khemakhem et al., 2018b; Khemakhem et al., 2018c), an open source machine learning system for automatically structuring print dictionaries in digital format into TEI (Text Encoding Initiative) to a historical lexical resource of Colonial Mixtec ‘Voces del Dzaha Dzahui’ published by the Dominican Fray Francisco Alvarado in the year 1593. The GROBID-Dictionaries application was applied to a re-organized and modernized version of the historical resource published by Jansen and Perez Jiménez (2009). The TEI dictionary thus produced will be integrated into a language documentation project dealing with Mixtepec- Mixtec (ISO 639-3: mix) (Bowers & Romary, 2017, 2018a, 2018b), an under-resourced indigenous language native to the Juxtlahuaca district of Oaxaca Mexico.
