What is NACLO?
NACLO is a contest in which high-school students solve linguistic
problems. In solving these problems, students learn about the
diversity and consistency of language, while exercising logic skills.
No prior knowledge of linguistics or second languages is necessary.
Professionals in linguistics, computational linguistics and language
technologies use dozens of languages to create engaging problems that
represent cutting edge issues in their fields. The competition has
attracted top students to study and work in those same fields. It is
truly an opportunity for young people to experience a taste of
natural-language processing in the 21st century.
