One of the languages I am working on is agglutinative in nature. The most afflicted sentence constituent is verb, which can carry up to 20 affixes (both prefixes and suffixes).
I wonder if anyone knows how to enable this feature in OpenOffice's hunspell. I would like to support multiple affixes as follows: PFX + PFX + PFX + PFX + VERB + SFX + SFX + SFX + SFX + SFX e.g. ndi + kana + dza + ku + lemb + ets + er + a + ni + tu => ndikanadzakulembetseranitu (=I would have registered for you) I have tried using COMPLEXPREFIXES flag and continuation classes (as in PFX G 0 dza/ABCE .) but this makes it understand only two-fold affixes. I might be missing something, but I would like to support n-fold for an abrtriary 0 <= n <= 20. I'm using this reference: - http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/dapper/man4/hunspell.4.html - http://pwet.fr/man/linux/fichiers_speciaux/hunspell --- Edmond Software Developer | Baobab Health Trust (http://www.baobabhealth.org/) | Malawi Cell: +265 999 465 137 | +265 881 234 717 *"Many people doubt open source software and probably don’t realize that there is an alternative… which is just as good.." -- Kevin Scannell*
