Type: Package
Title: Linguistic Typology and Mapping
Version: 1.1.22
Depends: R (≥ 4.1.0)
Imports: leaflet, leaflet.minicharts, stats, utils, stringdist, grDevices, jsonlite
Description: Provides R with the Glottolog database https://glottolog.org/ and some more abilities for purposes of linguistic mapping. The Glottolog database contains the catalogue of languages of the world. This package helps researchers to make a linguistic maps, using philosophy of the Cross-Linguistic Linked Data project https://clld.org/, which allows for while at the same time facilitating uniform access to the data across publications. A tutorial for this package is available on GitHub pages https://docs.ropensci.org/lingtypology/ and package vignette. Maps created by this package can be used both for the investigation and linguistic teaching. In addition, package provides an ability to download data from typological databases such as WALS, AUTOTYP and some others and to create your own database website.

Description

ISO 639 provides three language code sets: one is a two-letter code (ISO 639-1) and two others are three-letter codes (ISO 639-2 and ISO 639-3) for the representation of names of languages. ISO 639-1 was devised primarily for use in terminology, lexicography and linguistics. ISO 639-2 was devised primarily for use in terminology and bibliography. ISO 639-3 was devised to provide a comprehensive set of identifiers for all languages for use in a wide range of applications, including linguistics, lexicography and internationalization of information systems. It attempts to represent all known full languages.
