Quote:
The company's name – ABBYY – can be translated as keen eye. This word comes from the hypothetical (reconstructed) parent language for Miao-Yao, Nu, Hmong-Mien, Hmong, and Kim Mun groups of the Sino-Tibetan language family. This name and its meaning (keen eye) reflect the key fields of company's activity and research: document recognition and linguistic technologies.
