  abstract  = {In recent years linguistic typologies, which classify the world’s languages
	according to their functional and structural properties, have been widely used
	to support multilingual NLP. While the growing importance of typologies in
	supporting multilingual tasks has been recognised, no systematic survey of
	existing typological resources and their use in NLP has been published. This
	paper provides such a survey as well as discussion which we hope will both
	inform and inspire future work in the area.},
