This project combines linguistic and statistical information to develop a term extraction tool for Basque. Being Basque an agglutinative and highly inflected language, the treatment of morphosyntactic information is vital.

The result is a semi-automatic terminology extraction tool based on XML, for its use in technical and scientific information managing.
