Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This article explores how comparative linguistics has evolved in the digital age through the use of computational tools. It discusses major resources such as linguistic databases, algorithms for phonetic alignment, and visualization technologies. Applications in language reconstruction, historical linguistics, and preservation of endangered languages are examined, along with the challenges of data reliability and algorithmic bias. The article concludes that while computational methods expand the scope of comparative linguistics, human expertise remains essential.
