Here are some NLP classes:

* Oxford Deep NLP Lectures https://github.com/oxford-cs-deepnlp-2017/lectures

* Stanford Natural Language Processing with Deep Learning http://web.stanford.edu/class/cs224n/syllabus.html

* Georgia Tech Natural Language Understanding https://github.com/jacobeisenstein/gt-nlp-class

* Georgia Tech Deep Learning For NLP in PyTorch https://github.com/rguthrie3/DeepLearningForNLPInPytorch

And some books:

* Natural Language Processing with Python https://www.amazon.com/Natural-Language-Processing-Python-An...

* Foundations of Statistical Natural Language Processing https://www.amazon.com/Foundations-Statistical-Natural-Langu...

I wish I had more ideas for applications using techniques like this, otherwise I would probably spend much more time researching natural language processing.

Instead, I did a simple project on searching using language processing and just read Foundations of Statistical Natural Language Processing [1], which is not too difficult, and Speech and Language Processing: An Introduction to Natural Language Processing, Computational Linguistics and Speech Recognition [2], which is a pretty heavy read but a great reference. I was able to find a used copy of the second book for $0.30.

I also put a bit of study into articulatory phonetics and speech recognition as part of a graduate study-abroad, which is an interesting field on its own, but I always wanted to come back to computational linguistics.

I know that book well. It's too dated.

I haven't read any of these books, yet, highly recommended by some friends.
