HFST

Hfst is a computer program that helps computers understand languages. Imagine you know how to speak English, but your computer only speaks computer language. Hfst helps your computer understand English so that you can type or speak English to your computer and it will understand what you are saying! It's kind of like a translator between you and your computer. But instead of just translating words, it also understands the grammar and structure of sentences so that it can accurately understand what you're trying to say. Hfst does this by using special rules and algorithms that teach the computer how to understand the different parts of a language like nouns, verbs, and adjectives, and how they all work together to make a sentence. So when you use Hfst, you can communicate with your computer in your own language!
