View source for Classroom:Simon's cat - multi-lingual

We are a group of graduate students at the linguistic department at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology that work on text and speech annotation.

[[File:SimonsCat.png|thumb|300px|right|[http://www.simonscat.com/faqs.html source]]]

We have used work by the English animator Simon Tofield to create parallel recordings in [ ] languages? We have then annotated these recordings using Praat 
and TypeCraft.

You can learn more about Simon and his cat by going to [http://www.simonscat.com/faqs.html the official Simon's cat Website].

Simon's cat videos can be watched for example on [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1qHVVbYG8Y YouTube].
