摘要:The analysis of Yoruba vowels has been the focus of several papers and has been a topic in numerous others. But while this body of work has led to a clear description of the way to learn Yoruba words, it has also helped in the analytical and theoretical interest of it. The development is based on the integration of ideas from computer aided education; computer mediated communication as well as techniques in artificial intelligence. The system is designed for access on a stand-alone PC. Various design and implementation issues with respect to components of the system are here discussed in detail. The system is developed to assist in the derivation of Yoruba equivalent of English words supplied as input. Since Yoruba is a tonal language, the system developed would in addition to giving the meaning, also pronounce the meaning. In developing the system therefore, recognition is given to some letters that are normally identified by placing dot under them (e.g ) and caret ( ^ ) is used in place of the normal dot. This study illustrates how to process Yoruba language using computer. It would assist in the teaching and learning of Yoruba language
