Disclaimer: "I am not a professional in the linguistic area, but I am a Computer Scientist exploring the AI field for some time. Given the opportunity in this MeetUp, I want to share what I have learned and practiced with language processing, and why I chose Python as my 'friend' for this task" Luciano.
