Abstract

This paper reports on an evaluation performed on the Grammar Checker for Norwegian (NGC), developed at The Text Laboratory, University of Oslo. The ability of the NGC to find errors made by different "non-standard" linguistic groups is analysed and compared to its performance when tested on texts written by "standard" users. Then possible ways of adapting the NGC for use on deviant language input are discussed.
