Abstract
The goal of this Bachelor’s thesis was to create an Estonian crossword generator, that uses Estonian language resources and gathers the rest of the data from the web. The resulting crossword is printable to paper, solvable and checkable right on the webpage. The data used in the generation was gathered from the Estonian Wikipedia using web scraping and from the Estonian Wordnet using the definitions present in it and morphological synthesis. The crossword is generated using the constraint satisfaction method. In this thesis, data collection methods, crossword generation and the final web application are described.
