The Kumauni language, a regional dialect of India spoken in the Himalayan region of Kumaun, remains relatively understudied. This study aims to address this gap by developing a parsing tool specifically for Kumauni language research. The tool is designed to analyze and validate grammatical structures in complex Kumauni sentences. To achieve this, a collection of existing complex sentences in Kumauni was used to extract grammatical rules, which were then incorporated into a Link Grammar Parser model. This model enables the parsing of new complex sentences in Kumauni, offering researchers a valuable tool for linguistic analysis.
