As an OKI Summer Research Intern at IIIT Hyderabad, I worked on the digital transformation of the Telugu language and web media. My role involved the systematic digitization and structural archiving of Telugu texts on open-access platforms like Wikipedia and Wikisource. Additionally, I processed and analyzed unstructured text corpora from regional weblogs to support computational linguistics research, aiming to enhance the digital accessibility and technological infrastructure of the Telugu language.

As an Summer Research Intern at the Centre for Applied Linguistics and Translation Studies (CALTS), University of Hyderabad, with the supervision of Dr. Nagaraju Mandly. Driving research for the project, "The Influence of English Lexicon on Telugu Newspapers," I investigated contact linguistics, lexical semantics, and media discourse. Through systematic corpus analysis of print and digital journalism, I quantified patterns of lexical borrowing, code-mixing, and neologisms. This research mapped the empirical trajectory of how media convergence and language contact are actively restructuring the lexical landscape and stylistic paradigms of modern Telugu.

About

I am an M.A. Computational Linguistics student at the English and Foreign Languages University (EFLU), Hyderabad. My research interests focus on the synergy between human language structures and computational systems, specifically across Natural Language Processing (NLP), Language Technology, and Mathematical Linguistics. My practical experience spans lexicographical research and digital language preservation. Through a research internship on printed Telugu newspapers, I analyzed lexical borrowing patterns to understand how the English lexicon shapes modern Telugu print media. Additionally, during my internship with the OKI initiative at IIIT Hyderabad, I contributed to the digital preservation and open-data documentation of Telugu across platforms such as Wikidata, Wikimedia, Wikisource, Wikimedia Commons, and Blogspot. I am actively looking for research programs, academic collaborations, and internships where I can leverage formal linguistics and data-driven methods to build impactful language technologies.
