Amebis from Kamnik is a company in Slovenia in the field of language technologies.[1][2][3][4][5][6] The company has published several electronic dictionaries and encyclopedic dictionaries (e.g. ASP (32) dictionaries) and developed spell checkers, grammar checker Besana, hyphenators and lemmatizers for Slovene, Serbian and Albanian languages. The company maintains and edits the largest Slovenian dictionary portal Termania, which contains more than 135 dictionaries. The most used terminological dictionary on Termania is the Slovenian medical dictionary.
