The Language Council of Sweden at the Institute for Language and Folklore has a responsibility to support the development of language technology for the languages of Sweden. Together with the Department of National Minorities and Swedish Sign Language at the same institute, we are developing tools to collect and analyse texts in the national minority languages of Sweden. These texts will be available for use in research, for example in lexicographic work. We here present the specific challenges associated with building these tools for the Swedish national minority language Meänkieli.
