Let's talk about computational linguistics! My experience in building Siri voices 

Finding your channel has been a life changer. I would love to become a computational linguist and this helps me a lot. Thanks so much, Nastya

Thanks for making this great video. Liked it very much.

thanks for the great content youre providing wish you all the best

Everything in existence is built from language. And since that's the case that means there must be something that understands that language otherwise it would be pointless

My brother in law Ted is studying this. He’s a good guy.

Thank you

Nice 🌸

Hi Nastya, I'm a student major in French, and also want to be a computational linguist in the future. I am very inspired by your experiences ! Now i'm working on my thesis and my tutor told me to read some linguistics books in French, but i can only find some in English. Do you have any recommendations? Thanks!!

Hi Nastya. I just loved your video. I've seen your previous videos and I can say that, like you, I don't want to become a teacher or a translator. Not because I don't want to, but rather because I don't think I would be good enough. Besides, there are not a lot of opportunities in my country. Because of that I think that having a little background with programming could be interesting. I've studied five languages throughout my life but still I think my skills are pretty shitty (my German and English for instance are atrocious). I'm from Colombia by the way and this november I will get my language degree from a somewhat prestogious university, but instead of feeling proud, I feel nervous and discouraged from what I've heard from some graduated colleagues. I've seen though that there are some who have found opportunities as computational linguists in companies like Konecta without any computational background. Or at least none I'm aware of. I've seen some remote opportunities in Linkedin (mainly in the US) for people who have whether a computational background or a linguistics related background. I do have some background with corpus linguistics, syntax, morphology and phonemic transcriptions in Portuguese and Spanish (IPA to be specific). Personally I would love to do something related to TTS, ARS or voice recognition in general. Or something related to Praat. I think that a video about job hunting for computational linguists could be interesting. Perhaps a video about any portal besides Linkedin in which one could apply to related jobs for people with linguistic backgrounds.

Thank you for sharing. Is there an entry-level position I can apply to?

Привет, Настя! Спасибо тебе большое за то, что делишься информацией об этой специальности, ведь о ней очень мало что известно. Могу ли я попросить тебя, пожалуйста, посоветовать хорошие университеты, где об этой специальности расскажут лучше всего?

Can sombody get into this feild after bechelors in English linguistics?

I have BA in TESOL, but I would like to continue my education in master of science in computational linguists. Do you think as I didn't study linguists for BA, can I apply for MS computational linguists?

Can one land a job as a language engineer or NLP engineer after a masters degree in computational linguistics? For example the postgraduate degrees in computational linguistics from UBC Vancouver and Montclair University.

I am a holder of B.A degree in Linguistics and now I am pursuing my MA in Computational linguistics, but I find difficulties in Computing, I am not good at Python and mathematics. So, I decided for PhD to specialise in Corpus linguistics. So, my question here is could you advice me with some courses or whatever concerned with Corpus linguistics?

I have done MA English literature,can I get in to computational linguistics without persuing linguistics? please can you help me with this.this has been haunting me since sooo long😊

I’m English language and Translation graduate can I study master in this major?

Did you study computing skills by yourself?

Настя, расскажи пожалуйста, где ты училась?

How's the field now? I'm majoring in ComSci, and minoring in linguistics since I'm equally fascinated by the science of languages But I don't want to end up in some ML or AI-based NLP job or translation. I love phonetics and syntax and a bit of ethnolinguistics
